Mother says

The world has gone rife with perversity

So we look at it

Only through the windows of the living room

 "Don't play with the kids outside

 For they are below contempt."

So we sit in front of the TV

Ladled with oily snacks and big toys

To the escape the perversity

Of the world outside.

But what we see in the box

Mugs our childhood

Leaving us more rotten

Than the kids who play outside.
