The Blank Screen Show

Watching the dark night
of the television's empty face,
Staring into infinite blankness.
Talking to your image,
to clean slates dirty,
to find out why,
you spoke of the things you said.
'We're seeing each other,
we're more than just friends';
meanwhile, standing up there
at the end of the road,
pointing at the sign that says
DEAD END.
Propped hands on hips,
Your head cocked to the side,
as if to say, 'What'd you expect?!';
and my condemning reply:
'Just what I got, more truth
dressed in lies'.
The Days of Our Lives?
I've tried to change the station.
Your commercial is repeating
over and over, selling me
~We will return to our normal programming
after these UN-important messages~
Messages darker than this empty
screen that has enveloped me so...
