Spread out comfortably on the couch, <br /> <br />Eating a Costco sized bag of chips, <br /> <br />Striving to reach the center of that tootsie pop, <br /> <br />Wondering, damn, how many more licks, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Channel surfing, implementing exercise of the thumb, <br /> <br />To do nothing all day, oh what fun! <br /> <br />You’d go out, but it’s raining, no sign of the sun, <br /> <br />There goes your daily Vitamin D, <br /> <br />You are stuck inside, yet, in a way, you are also free, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />The cell phone is ringing; there goes that ringtone, <br /> <br />It emanates perfection; after all, it’s an iphone, <br /> <br />Pick up! You can use the company, <br /> <br />What movie to watch, there are so many, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Spread out comfortably on the couch, <br /> <br />Eating a Costco sized bag of chips, <br /> <br />Striving to reach the center of that tootsie pop, <br /> <br />Wondering, damn, how many more licks, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Oh no, where is that remote? <br /> <br />Next time, write its location on a sticky note! <br /> <br />Lost it again, for the 100th time, <br /> <br /> So many lapses in memory, <br /> <br />I need to exercise my brain, or I'll soon be history <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />As you ponder this question, you get a dose of TMZ, <br /> <br />All of a sudden, you lost that urge to pee, <br /> <br />Indeed, quite engaged in the gossip at hand, <br /> <br />So in thought, your mind behaves as if sinking in quick sand, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Spread out comfortably on the couch, <br /> <br />Eating a Costco sized bag of chips, <br /> <br />Striving to reach the center of that tootsie pop, <br /> <br />Wondering, damn, how many more licks, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />What a couch potato! <br /> <br /> <br />**Another poem, with the intent to crack a smile, again. Enjoy! :)<br /><br />Kevat B. Patel<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-couch-potato/
