Tv

The idiot box progressed in idiotic way
done so long journey just in few decades.
Black and white to colour of sizes varied
analogue to digital, CRT to Plasma, LCD, LED;
high resolution, PIP, HDD and three D
Going smart every day
don't know the future, where journey will end.

One hand shrinked the world
divided the society in classes on other-
children, ladies, cookery, sports, realty;
placed extra load on brain and eyes.
One way helped learn, entertain,
on other kept away play and social interact.

Whatever may be, pierced so deep in life
became immense companion;
We cannot live without a TV
though without a friend or wife, we can.
