Commercial Destruction

the thick message competes with reality, pulls us like string puppets, wags the tail of truth, prevents positive emotion, obscures historic changes, stopping time.... ....slowing progress increasing shareholder value

James, I could almost believe you stole this out of my heart ... this is the people's poetry, and you, Sir, are the archive of their truths ... a favorite write.

Awesome write, James. Wagging "the tail of truth" is a great way to describe deception. Again, you give the reader much to ponder. Love, Carolyn

I like it. It make me think. The continum between the value of the co-orporation and the value of the individual. Each on opposite ends. Humanizing the supply and demand concept. At least that's what it made me think, And thinking is good! Well done!
