Audience Participation


The quiet minions are cheering
ranting in their millions
the irony of enthusiasm
screaming at the animated postcards
element of their discordant reflections

Between adverts the devil dances
for the soul selling constituents
entertainments and soap opera truths
stab in the back and all the series-ousness
electrified plasmatic glass can muster 

Still the family is together
baking emotions on heated issues
everything to say says it all
but nothing at all
to one another

Human enemy weapons
gathered together in their millions
dancing with the dangerous criminals
of freedom
ecstatic for the truth
and silent when it is not
