Bedtime used to mean one thing––
all the pleasures sleep can bring;
but now life’s not so cut and dry,
and yes, I’m going to tell you why.
A smart TV up on the wall
turns bed into a shopping mall,
a cinema or library,
transmitter of pornography,
a research center or gaming table.
Anything that you are able
to conceive of, and then more
now waits behind your bedroom door.
Assuming you can fit yourself into the bed, why bother to get up at all? Oh, right. Eating. Dogs. Art. Friends. Never mind 🙂
