Flea Bag Motel

The old TV's broke.
The promised cable service
A deep, profound lie.

Thank you, thank you. Of course you know, this was a test post. Rather than just putting "test" up there I came up with this little Haiku in a jiffy.

If I had truly gotten stuck in a Flea Bag Motel and the advertised color TV and cable wasn't delivered as promised, I would feel this kind of betrayal.

I need TV in a hotel room, flea bag or otherwise. It distracts me from thinking about everything I don't want to think about when staying there: being lonely, work, all the bio-waste billowing around me at every turn.
