Consumer Zombies

 

Such dissatisfaction

For so little reason.

Much complaining & whining,

Crying & begging;

Pulling hair, tight fists

And gnashing teeth.

Consumer Zombies stagger

Into the Stop & Shop,

Shop & Go,

Buy More For Less-

Sale, Sale, Sale!

Salivating glands & bug eyes;

Our hands grab more than

Can possibly be seen.

Our skin stretches tight

As white elephants stampede.

Why can’t we all

 

Just Stop & think?

Take a drink of the cool morning

Air and buy in the sunrise?
