Streamin’

Based on Ireland 1995
Eddie Friel — Dreamin'

Streamin’
Feelin’ like it’s such an opportune night
Tragic is the plight
Remedies all trite
I’m self-healin’

Weedin’
Readin’ through all lists, how unappealin’
What’s on HBO?
Netflix had this show, got me reelin’*

(* “The Beast in Me”, highly recommended!)

I keep going through the motions
Browse through queasy specialties
“Goon with Patrick Star or Swayze”
“Psychiatric kids telly”

My Prime leans on ad reliance (Feedin’)
Not impressed by what’s on at Disney
Not succeedin’ before Yuletide (Fortnight)
Keeping fate no longer looks pretty

* Sad, indecisive accordion that serves as background music to a montage of aimless scrolling through streaming services
(Every la represents one minute - yes, that’s 19 whole minutes!) *

Suffering at large
Screamin’

Finally found something, well done
Hissing at what I next see
“Not included in subscription”
Change my tactics readily (Stealin’)

(Every la represents one second of opening the laptop and finding the right portal - yes, that’s only 11 seconds!)

I’ll just use the Pirate Bay, it’s free
