Distracted

find myself thinking
in cartoon voices

my consumicating subcreature
makes lists of purchases
to the circadian thrum
of compulsiveconocapitaltopia

Oh, and let me tell you of gadget lust
the gospel of Biggerfasterbetter

the things we lay at the foot of the altar
of Iwant
these adorations
these waining passions

here in the free world
He who has the most toys dies

cause of death?
distraction

Author notes

This is a work in progress. I fear I am presently too distracted to tidy it up.

    unfortunately i relate to this. i am most certainly dying - but it is a long slow death. mine is not from electronics so much as from being trapped under something heavy - like furniture or... my house.
    neat read.

  • I believe this makes its point very well.
