Commercials
A shape of the void is providing innumerable occupations for characters on the stage to emote through clearest and wet lightning
the distortion of audience perspective sustains briefly

my feelings about tv commercials
TV commercials interest me now
I can watch the same one nine times in a row
And still not know what they are selling
Is it my age? My eyesight? My hearing?
Or are commercial writers really bad now?

TV Commercials Work on Me
These are the toys you will need this year
It is 1959; my tv is near
Saturday morning, we’re watching cartoons
We all need perry puppet made of balloons
Mothers pick up their phones to order one
They are sold out, Christmas will not be so fun
Commercials convinced us kids in fifty-nine
Bending each eager innocent gullible mind
Commercials continue to work

Commercials Push My Prayers Away
I.
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 pray with Cameron, who has a court date ...
II.
LORD Jesus,

Commercials

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

Like the Commercials
They 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 and experiences
Too silly to explain to others
Remembered immediately upon

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 this ambushing,
And these subtle commercials are agenda pushing.
To change the

Old Tv Commercials
There 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 think of them they are in my vision.

Tv Commercials Disclaimers
I 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 peanut butter sandwich with two package of chips on my
lap,

Between Commercials
I 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 head leaned back on my chest.
Neck twisted in a kiss.
The

I Demand Some Tv Commercials
Toy 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 fast forward through them.
How does your child know what doll

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 tailored to my individual spending habits,
And each time I Inquire,

Commercials 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
