Consider this

Received this food for thought from Sweden but its truth is universal:

The little black box
So innocently presented
Invades our homes
Invades our minds
Full of want
Full of lust
Full of crime
Trains behaviour
All in the name of entertainment

The little black box
So innocently presented
Leaves a trail of discontentment
Invisibly breeds contempt
Please spare a thought to man's mental health
Humankind left with distrust, despair and loneliness

How I miss civil conversation
How I miss sensitivity to humankind
Any kindness will do
That little black box
So innocently presented
Is not so innocent after all
