Panagiota Romios Poet Rhyme

Tv Shopping Madness

           TV SHOPPING MADNESS

           The mad Christmas shopping on
TV has begun.

           Hair dryers for close to 400 dollars.
Tons of electrical stuff that will make us anything 
but Rhodes scholars!.

           Some of you ladies will remember 
when clothes came in sizes?
           Now they like Zeppelins, we, 
too,can look the one that rises!

           Vacuum cleaners, of all types.
My favorite for three hundred dollars 
is one robotic.
           That spins on your floor, shiny
and makes me totally hypnotic!

           Serums, masks and cremes galore.
You put on a beauty mask,and  you will be 
twenty-one when you walk out the door?

          All manner of organizers, leopard,
patriotic  or gold, 
Truly, a sight one would  have to behold.

         Those who do not have a TV, now
don't let your egos get you huffy!
         Commercialism has a way of getting to 
you!
         Even with beds for your faithful dog~
Muffy.

          I have never seen HSN and QVC
in such a panic!
         One product every ten minutes?
It makes me mutterly manic!

         So, back to soothing music and
writing poetry.
          And very choice readings from the
inspiring of you, to humanity.

Gershon Wolf November 10, 2019 at 9:03 PM Well, as one without a TV, I'm content to listen to all the 'shopping madness' on AM radio. LOL. ~ Zeppelin, of the Lead variety Panagiota Romios November 11, 2019 at 2:37 PM It was fun watching the channels trying to outdo one another. I did not sit Here all day with the TV on for heavens sake, I prefer FM radio, classics, jazz, blues..
