The truth explained in a very convincing way.Do we fail to realise the impact?
we must think again and again before we loose our future.

A clever poem, with a catchy rhythm and somewhat morose opinion on television. There is truth in what the poet says.

This is the first thing I've read by Dahl that I've enjoyed. Sadly too many people choose t.v. over a good quality book. As I tell my children, there are only so many hours in our day and we benefit when we use them wisely. It all comes down to choices...

the poem is nice.. but i don't completely agree with poet.. it is still the choice of the person if he/she just keep watching all day...

i love this poem but its not really tv's fault, tv is actually pretty great when not dependent on it, like every vice. educate the parents.

I love this poet. He is fun and he also brings about issues which do relate to this century about reading alot more. However the book he proposes are out of date. He is intriguing and very much entertaining.

Television! A lot of thoughts come to mind here, like what happened to good 'ol paper and pen?

I agree with the poet to some extent. I often wonder why my child doesn't run about and play as I did.

The title should be 'KILL TELEVISION'
