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?...

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...

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 By: Tom 3’24’2020 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 ...

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 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...

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. © Paul Warren...

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,...

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...

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 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,...

I 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 you dread, But in many cases they’re the ones That stick inside...
