Cemetary of forgotten fads
make room for next big thing
remains of yesterdays flavor
litter junk yard floors
shopping malls loaded with
eager shoppers
hot today
not tomorrow
mainstream decay

Isn't it just crazy. And even those of us who don't consider ourselves conformists can get caught up in it all if we aren't watchful. terrific poem!!! I like the consonance you have employed. It makes the words just kind of fall off the lips rhythmically.
