Ignorant Indulgence

Juicy Couture
Juicy Couture
Dont make ish like this no more

Bring back good fashion
SHEIN is tired
Wool, silk, linens
Put polyester in a fire

The fads have faded
Trends are tired
Give us proper clothes
Our situation is dire

This waste, this consumption
Our society is plagued
This greed, this hunger
Buying through guilt and rage

A human hole 
Fill it with stuff
Emotions take hold
Fill it with fluff

No depth
Less dimension
Sorrowfully empty
Riddled with tension

It tugs, it pulls
Waits for your truth
It gnaws, it scream
Be the sleuth

No one can understand
First, you must learn
Self-discovering journey
Then peace you will earn

No hole, only hope
No greed, but gratitude
Find yourself chanting
No woes, but platitudes 

Their tales old as time
Hold truth in every rhyme
Follow a life of your design

Don't believe it?

This is the sign.
