Well, maybe not solely to blame. WE do buy into it; otherwise, it would not work.But they sure are slick little devils, aren't they? Good luck in Caroline's contest, I know you'll do well.

LOL.. A perfect entry for Carolyn's "Commercialized Humor Contest", James. The bottom line is always greed. With a little foresight maybe they'll remember that cliche, "You will reap what you sow". Love, Audrey

Then let us not fed them our scraps ... but grow the maggots for our own instead, James. Thanks for this, for poetry must have a social commentary pointing to a poet's conscience. One love
