Got our first colour telly

watching THE WIZARD
OF OZ

as before
& before.

but our colour telly
is already(it appears)
broke.

we’re watching Judy
sing in black & white.

I, irate
grab it by it’s rabbit ears

give it a bloody
good thump

& suddenly
it blossoms

Judy suddenly

singing in
glorious Technicolor.

Oh, if only all the world's problems were so easily solved...a good thumping, and the world sings in 'glorious Technicolor! ! ' What a charming thought...THUMP, THUMP....feel all better now? ?
