remember when we had green grass?

hot nights
but they don't go to bed
their friend is online, skyping,
playing video games
and watching endless YouTube videos
on the big screen TV,
the window open behind closed curtains.
How many times
did we ask them to close the window
when they went to bed in the early light of morning?
Not enough, anyway.
Remember when we used to have a telly?
and they used to have a laptop?
At least the dogs stopped them
from taking my PC
