After dinner and teeth cleaning,
On a Friday night,
Seven attempt to sit comfortably,
On one three seater lounge.
They jostle for position.
Baby always scores the best seat,
Mummy's lap.
We have no T.V.
So laptop perched on a kiddies play chair,
Substitutes for the home cinema.
Portable speakers for Dolby Stereosonic sound.
Three dollar 'weekly hire' from the cafe.
No bandwidth for streaming,
But who needs the latest releases?
It is the latest to us.
Nightmares limit us to G ratings,
But it's cosy,
And we see most of the movie,
Between head movements.
And hear most of the dialogue,
Between the audience commentary.
