Consumertopia

Topic: political

Come all of you who wish to dine
On saltless cardboard chips
And burgers lettuced sparingly
Come shove between your lips

Step through the threshold of this place
And let yourself consume
As much as you can fit inside
For in you there is room

For several value saving meals
Complete with icy coke
Wrapped up in cheapest paper bags
And ice cream too (no joke)

Come in out of that nasty sun
And sit inside of here
With strip lights we will light you up
You’ll grin from ear to ear

Your taste buds we won’t stimulate
Your mind will turn to slush
Just close your eyes and masticate
Swallow, Belch and Flush

Stop thinking about quality
It’s quantity we do
It may be bland as English sand
But there’s enough for you

Don’t worry about healthiness
And other myths like that
Fast cooking times and stealthy ness
Will help you to get fat

It is our job to fill the holes
The chasms of your tums
The emptiness inside your souls
With stuck together crumbs

And barely thawed out vegetables
And several types of meat
And barely recognizable
Things that used to bleat

And unidentifiable
Chunks as grey as sleet
Shove it in, eat up the world
Swallow, Belch, Repeat.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
