The VCR as Vampire

They were a race of vampires

Barely 50 years old

Evolving fast as the market would bear

Becoming cheaper

And the market more saturated

As demand dwindled

And now you find them for $2 at Goodwill

Those anachronistic little machines

Which is good

The VCR was a vampire

It could rewind your life and take all the life from you

Well, that went off the rails, didn’t it?

Do you still have a VCR?
