Tired of all the distracting ads on social media, I dis ided to display my disinterest though a poem.

Distanced I Dis connect

Disconsolate enuii
I flick the screen alive 
strangers flood my space
they disparage what I use
push their disposable trash

I dismiss the ploys they use
their flashing light displays
the blur of too much choice
disturbed by airbrushed smiles
all those disjointed claims

I distrust their AI games
disquietened by false charm
my silence disconcerts 
so they offer me a deal-
who needs a talking broom

disgruntled and dismayed
to have them in my house
distracted by their noise
and always fake discounts
their loud discordant gush.
