We've Been Programmed

you are within textured walls
broadcasts on technicals call:
'speech is draft,
hats off to the tariff chat
HELLO RETRO DOOM'

Sickre scene, where's the seagull to land and start picking at the issue
might you tell yourself a few scams to feel you're 'crammed in busy-body'
everything, pure apple sour business, greedindustrify yourself
and justify this...
BLACK    WHITTY ROOM, with grey
graphic modernate, this stripe of okapi,
YELLOW for the sympathied energy,
Hello TV, look what you've done
you've made us hobbits, hostile
eyes prying upon BBC One

Author notes

picture made me think of history, revolution in the tv and products effect. since black and white times we've had tv invented, and that has moved into homes where furniture, natural light from the window also lives - therefore: clash. We've made ourselves back in black and white time with our dull zombified presents - tv's hypnotism, glueing - taking our colour of idea and imagination and mind from us - and archaing eye drama observation, that's far too common now'days

    Loved it. It would be especially powerful if it was read out loud, as a performance piece.

    Favorite lines: "Pure apple sour business" and "hats off to the tariff chat." Couldn't tell you why. They just resonated.
