I Don’t Watch TV
From the book My Dog Likes to Disco
I don’t watch TV.
I mean, who’s got the time?
I only watch YouTube,
and Netflix, and Prime,
and Hulu, and Crackle,
and Roku, and Tubi,
and Vudu, and Hoopla,
and Yahoo, and Mubi,
and Google, and Apple,
and Vimeo too,
and Disney, and PopcornFlix.
That’s all I do.
There’s so much to stream!
It might seem like a crime
to not watch TV,
but, then, who’s got the time?
