cable TV became popular in the 1950’s‚ there has always been a worry that people watch too much TV. Most people believe that with exorbitant exposure to the popular media both dumbs us down as well as makes us more likely to tolerate acts of violence.

The speaker tells the story in a somber and serious tone‚ almost as though he is a close observer of the events. The serene scene of the poem is set in Vermont at sunset‚ where a boy is cutting wood with a “buzz-saw” (1). When the boy’s sister
