A Satire On Commercials
A Satire on Commercials
I Don’t Need It
But Gimme Two
Written: by Miracle Man
8/2/2017
Commercials are filled with lots of untruths and ploys,
Using scantily dressed women oozing charm and poise;
Each with the thought of enticing me to spend money,
Using smoke and mirrors and often insultingly funny;
Commercials are...

Jamming CommercialsStarting earlier every year,
Christmas costs more and more with less cheer.
This year Santa fell flat.
His diet took the fat,
Elves said,” this will not be good” they fear.
Watching commercials, they got idea.
Close diners, except pizzeria.
Each ad on T.V. now,
Pictures of pizzas wow!
Santa gains, without diarrhea.
Ads worked,...

CommercialsCommercials can drive us loopy and buggy
Time after time, the same message quite uggy
Should be outlawed
Concept is flawed
SOMEONE please come over I need a huggy...

Cotton CommercialsCotton Commercials
always reminded me of
my grandmother's house
irony cotton paralleling
Ridgfield Park, New Jersey bitterness.
Boiling in decrepit neighborhoods,
once swarming with Irish and Italian Catholics.
Now a haven of cracked sidewalks
ten miles outside of Manhattan.
Maybe it was the song that did it?
Reminiscent of that old wood grained plastic...

Tv Commercials DisclaimersI am listening to a list of glorious disclaimers on TV
That follow a commercial about a terrific new wonder drug that
helps you blow freckles off your arms.
Usually I am in the kitchen getting
Something to eat by now, but this time I already had my little
banana...

Like the CommercialsThey give me hugs and we laugh with glee
My childhood forever friends
The ones I have had for over fifty years.
One for sixty-two years actually, since kindergarten.
We make an arrangement for a playdate
And we run toward each other like the TV commercials.
We are linked by memories...

Prose Poetry
Commercials Push My Prayers AwayI.
Many thoughts were deemed invalid now
(My heart says, when posts disappear here,
And I see advertisements where my words were typed!)
My prayers ought to be "secret," we read in Matthew
But we are urged to pray together, per Hebrews
Once more: Scripture says "balance," not either-or, neither-nor
So I...

CommercialsI saw a great commercial
But forgot what it was for.
I suppose it was a failure
On the advertising score.
For a catchy little lyric
Or a scene to make you cry
Should remind you of the product
That it’s hoping you will buy.
Certain ads are quite obnoxious,
With a jingle that...

Old Tv CommercialsThere was Louie the fly
Who’d want to fly by
There was Madge who
Soaked your hands in Palmolive goo
There was the Rolladoor song
That Geelong supporters sing along
Your Mum Mister Sheened your furniture
To a sparkling shine so sure
These commercials I remember on television
That as soon as I...

Ballad
Between CommercialsI needed this so much.
A little alone time.
Designer jeans.
T-shirts printed with out the blue sayings.
A moment to ourselves home alone.
Wasting time just you & I.
Causally stretched across each other on the couch.
Commercials filled with Wal-mart families.
Insurance companies. Lawsuit claims.
Your sugar fills the space between shows.
Your...

I Demand Some Tv CommercialsToy and cereal advertisers must be going zany these days, and I do know.
When I was a child there were twenty-two commercials to every thirty-minute TV show.
Watching the TV commercials was the cost of watching TV, right, Jim?
These days no one watches commercials, choosing to...

Commercials That Push An Agenda
Commercials That Push An Agenda
Written: by Miracle Man
11-9-2019
I turn on the tube and immediately feel beset,
Commercials aimed at young minds too immature to fret.
It’s often not what they say, but the pictures they show,
planting visual thoughts that in young minds grow.
They become innocent victims of...

What you see
Isn’t always what you get.
Appliance or Mattress, or Mobile Device
First, cheapen it up,
go heavy on the advertising.
Then, more importantly,
give it some fancy name.
After inflating the price,
have a 30-40-even 50 percent off sale,
Works every time!
Baa Baa Baa
