Double Blind 20-20

See what! Don’t let a let a lot of skyjack noise cloud your IQ vision Radar babies make sonar decisions for the latest batch of tech toys They be so double blind batty, making a-plenty penthouse dwellers’ pockets grow beanstalk fatty Don’t be a mice fool, and go play the double blind game of possessions Don’t be a dull tool, with no say Telling ‘em your covetous confessions 20/20 is starting to look a-like a whole lot of double zero eyes are getting poked twice Look-y here ... Another snooze chump for beta wave paid commercial distractions The new-and-improved is bank loan made for your consumer lust satisfaction Weekly double hump got those pyramid scheme calculators seeing a 5th finger interest double bump Which is sure to put you in another repo session But hey, slaving for glaucoma scraps is your debt passion Don’t be a lemming fool, and cliff fall for the age-old double blind game of bait-and-switch Don’t be a pigeon stool, of rote recall Every product prototype has a developmental glitch 20/20 is starting to look a-like a whole lot of double zero eyes are getting poked twice 20/20 Rearview tinted vision is seeing a lot of table stake chimps getting poker played 20/20 Planet of the Apes is being neo-Babel Tower glitter blind raised See whatnot! 20/20 Double blind pursed lip hospice is being wallet wink walkie $o money $ign nod double-talkie Who doctored a future paid? 20/20 Little Stevie Wonder mint cane sight-seeing, bills in the Braille fold Pirate eye patchy sold — Fifth finger collection is a guide dog feeling Double blind vision looks a-like Another dim gold brick laid

Yes, it’s true and in this case it’s the rats who have set the bait for us. There is a certain irony in that. As always, top shelf poetry Freddie. Blessings Rick.
