Love Poem: The Remote

The Remote

Oh, the all important remote!
I know how you got your name.
"Cause you're remote,...
Matter'a'fact you're missing!!
I just listened to 30 minutes
of Japanese game show yell...
I think I'd rather go to hell
I usually have you velcro'd
To my thigh,
But tonight you're loose,
And I wonder why...
Sneakin' off again with
the Universal Remote?
Which I've found,
Doesn't work in this universe..
That you may quote..
I hope I don't have to extend
this verse,
Because alone with no TV
is a curse...
Go read a book?
I sometimes do like,
But I need an HBO movie,
Or madness will strike...
Guess today is over,
Should just turn in...
"Cause this time,
the remote did win.
