{mooblock=Tonight's Episode}
I flip through channels.
I cross great westerns.
I ride Route 66.
Here I am the detective.
Here I am the Fugitive.
I am Cannon. My name is Gunn.
Sniveling cowards are everywhere,
and everywhere they are out to get me.
Sweat and static runs down their nervous faces.
They are afraid because they know
outside of channels they are forgotten.
They only live in here, and they know
they are not long for this world.
