Modern Convenience
Modern convenience
In nearly every room of our convenient lives we have vessels which facilitate our lack of permanence
Our trash cans make it easy to psychologically remove ourselves from that which we don't care for
To discard is bred in to our nature
We are inclined to depart from that which we are averse
We seek to depart our own existence readily and
embrace the temporary realities given to us
Yes each room does remove reality with very little effort indeed
Each untidy detail hidden and unmanageable just goes away and our minds our taken,
numbed, and subjugated to the whims of those who know…they know our masses
yearn for more when we know not why…we pay homage to the 70" alter day in and out
The prophesy of purchasing power dictated and fed through waves of familiar escape
Watch the disconnected relatable protagonist lay waste to self and loved ones before
your delivery dinner gets cold…then
Find their way back with the mirror of every-man that imparts the pseudo internalization
of realizing the struggle of network dispensation from behind a TV dinner…
night after night'
Then the day comes…when realization and identity is replaced by relate-ability
and internalization…some irrational emotional lobotomy that causes the very light of
our core to dim and seem only to brighten in the false light of promised
escape and inclusion…from 8:00 – 9:00 every Thursday on your favorite network…
be sure to tune in…
