         TV= "silent blue".....Cf. "blue screen of death" [as in the phrase for computer screens?]....Why are the birds competing/completing? They are mockingbirds, mocking TV? 
They [birds] should be what we hear in life, but they are being driven out by TV?
 
Frenesi, with her betrayal, has the fitting [karmic, per Robin?] punishment of being cut off from her mother and daughter?  Since she did not believe in human connection, she now has to rely on The Witness Protection Program...."fed government would take care of you".....Yea, right [never in TRPs worldview]
