One of the joys of poetry is that it can contain multiple hard-to-describe facets of the same concept.

* The revolution won't be televised because they won't show it to you.

* The revolution won't be televised because it's not a passive, external experience that you just consume.

* The revolution won't be televised because it starts inside yourself.

Art in general is this way. It's no wonder the more we abstract away our lives and society (through screens, deliveries, etc) the more abstract art feels more relevant to our experience.

* The revolution won't be televised because we don't watch TV anymore (and are fragmented and increasingly don't even have those common touch points anymore).

I'll watch the revolution when the whole season comes to Netflix and I can binge it over a weekend.
