No need

A television in front of me
in my bedroom
Is it normal to have a tv
staring at you
While you're in bed?
Do people watch the news
while readying to sleep
or maybe first thing in the morning
After waking up
or movies perhaps
I wouldn't know
this large screen
serves as a prop
it's never been turned on
I see my reflection in it
blurred and useless
and why is there even a tv here?
who needs two televisions
in one house?
Well, I'll tell you
everyone in my whole family
has two tv's
Each house has two of these
and so I do too
