My Very Own Dictionary

If I were to compile a compendium of words, to indicate their meaning
it would not have the title of a normal dictionary
It would be my own compendium 
given my made name of Fictionary

The very first word I would add into that publication
would be modern advertising, how it tricks us with its guile
It's the pinnacle of deception to change human perception
to sell some junk that's really not worthwhile

There are often many comments made that the ads they are ignored
by those who watch tee vee, often 'cause they're bored
But isn't it amazing that the sales they do skyrocket
when humans are induced to empty out their pocket
For some article they really do not need

All the ads are propaganda, used by governments one and all for the purpose to disguise
the dangers of the jab and the harm resulting from masking
And the population soak up all the fiction, never asking 
for the proof to maintain a healthy life

So switch the tee vee off, get out into nature
inhale bucketfuls of invigorating fresh air
You'll be much more relaxed 
when the wind is blowing through your hair

Stay away from advertising
fill your life with truth and love
Accept the only true promotion,
a divine message, descending from above
