Bob and Roberta Were Swallowed By Their Television

Bob and Roberta Bongwater were watching TV
last night.

Bob was watching a re-run of a Tom Waite Interview.
Roberta wanted to watch a show on how to grow containerized vegetables.

They were fighting over the remote
when a high pitched tone was emitted.
Then the sound of a giant vacuum
from the front of their sixty-five inch flat screen.

They were both sucked out of their recliners into the box,
into the black hole created by a wound in the time continuum.

Only Bob’s burning Camel and Roberta’s 64 oz Slurpie remained on their seats.

This has happened twice this year in the area, and authorities are baffled.
