I was married to a man who spent ages looking for batteries for the remote whilst bemoaning the fact he was missing his programme. I didn't bother to wonder why he didn't just get up and turn it over by the button. I just carried on watching whatever I was watching. :) In our house we call the remote the 'wand.' This should have a pic of Homer with it, Robin. My review is officially longer than your poem. Hehe, I am USELESS at reviewing haikus and senryus.

I wonder what made that man sigh...He seemed to have it all...Food, entertainment,control of the remote....Sara

Wonderful short piece. Absolutely intense in so few words.

Well done.

wow! i am amazed at your expert use of double meaning here.

love how he is comfy in his hollow
and that it is the couch who sighs "not again"

genius!

this slice of american life. the picture is immediately familiar and vivid.

i think haiku and senyru gets a bad wrap but when done well they truly elevate poetry. thank you for this excellent gem!

Excellent form for a man of precision. Good write.

Very nicely done senyru- I've always been terrible at those. The capitalization of the name really adds a lot to this. Wonderfully penned.
Great write.
