Television Opinion People
strange people
with their strange ideas
badly disguised insecurities
and their obvious fear
forming opinions on you
when they barely know your name
never changing those opinions
strange people
with their personal motives
and driving ambition
they suck up the dirt they see
and then spit it out
the gloss is too fake
with their double standards
and television opinions
they are not standards at all
and television opinions
are the most dangerous of all
strange people
in their dirty glass worlds
throwing stones and never looking out
only keeping in the cold
James Garratt – Thursday 26th August 1999
