Enjoy a quick Sampling
Uninspired
A sudden breeze
moves me more
than music nowadays
spending time laughing at
shallow singers surf
radio waves
listening in dismay
to the same six songs
spinning in a death defying rotation
until somebody sings along
another day
another person programmed
by a radio station
A Star is Born
We surf on social media waves,
exploring time lines
where stars are born
to be superficial
for digital eyes
to quantify perfection.
We exist. They live.
They raise our interest.
We pay attention,
year after year,
following these stars,
until we become indebted souls,
lost on the dark side of the fence.
Allegiance
New Normal! New World! New Oligarchy!
Everyday a piece of liberty is chipped away.
Worldwide Depression on the horizon!
WHO has the remedy?
One nation under siege,
Reorganizing like a corporation.
Limited liability protecting Big Brother, as citizens
Drown in debt.
Our land is their land!
Reality stars watch their fans fade away into the
Dark Ages,
Erasing memories of democracy, until we
Rise again!
Free Thinker
My head floating into tainted contrails,
listening to lost voices echo.
Stars tethered with cocaine lines
and broken places where bones meet.
Buried memories resurface
the moment a child ascends into adulthood.
The road to victory
is a constellation,
drifting above noise and blackness
and levitating behind the great puppeteer.
