I believe you just "dropped a truth bomb, " sir! Well done!
I think this is my favourite entry so far
Perfect poem and topic for this challenge, Paul! Well done! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
It's a good thing that I don't like reality TV. But I loveeee your poem!
Reality TV can be such a time-hole! Great poem, Paul!
So true. There's nothing "real" about reality TV, it's all scripted entertainment.
Pretty close to my feelings about much of reality tv.
I had to read that twice to acknowledge, that yep, that's what he said...hahahaha!! Hilarious and so true. Great one!!
I will avoid the pitfalls of analyzing the first half of this poem LOL! I snort-laughed when I read it! What a nut! You are spot on with the second half! Nicely done, Paul!
Oh, man, I laughed! Love where you went with this one, Paul!
Totally agree! Complete waste of energy and time!! Great job! 💕
