Consumerist Poems | Examples


Against Hegemony

Steps on mud, a stalking thread,
Red strings wind through dying groves
Where life needs time, to find footing,
Red strings halt hands in greed which hold
The axe of ignorance, the axe which bleeds
A people in flight from homes bulldozed
For one brute mine more, to feed empire
Which jangles keys, which confines in loaned
Dependence made, our trough withheld
By bloated old speculators whose cold
Lies obscure serfdom; worded as freedom,
And the east wind is chided,
For fetishism, advert slogans uphold
Impotence among them who create,
They are given consumerist mirrors,
As leeches of mankind are weighed in gold;
And as burns away our way of life,
All bonds formed in toil shared,
The market-canker births hedonism
The imperial axe bloodies us, brothers of old
But hold tight onto the strong strands
Of crimson in the heartlands,
Seize imagination, seize thought
Beyond nettle laden garlands
And thorn crown of parlay,
Rip with the iron of hardship
All parasites, them whose is the whip,
Can’t be pleaded with, can’t be controlled.

Lockdown- 37th Day

Workers day
Labours in handicapped alms dish of world sufferings
World labour market always in unseen blessings

Sometimes I find happiness in the harem of have nothing
Know that I am uninvited in this radiant deaths of world
I am not pearl diver in the diary of hard stone prison
I lost myself in the consumerist human weakness

I seek the taste of freedom in the alms of reliefs
Today or tomorrow how many days will I wait for flight

Lockdown- 32nd Day

Summer rains drenching fearlessly the panicked city
April breezes touching silently the heart of loving prithee

Not alone in this garden of worldly processions
With laughing and weeping life in crowded adorns

I'm seeing the eternal rising sun through your eyes
Far stars flowering the impending paths of joys

Let the Autophagy win in the consumerist worlds
Let the world be filled with united humane pearls

Real Housewives Slam

The Real Housewives 
Sorry
Reality T.V Housewives 
What's that all about
Happy Wife 
Happy life
Jesus Christ 
Thank God for Nannies 
And Cleaner's 
And Make up Artist's 
Imagine any of these
Without the 3 R's to fall back upon
Rich's 
Rrendering 
Rhinoplastey 
And a cheating Husband 
All of the diamonds and all the plastic surgeons 
Can't polish a turd 
Even if it's covered in gold
Mutton dressed as lamb
Doesn't make a housewife 
Real housewives are loved not built 
Are Mother's 
Not Reality Consumerist martyrs 
Dressed in overpriced garters 
With fake teeth
Fake smile's 
Fake Boobs 
And even faker marriages 
With bleached and trimmed undercarriages 
Slam
Sham
Film flam 
Acting like there **** don't stink
Because they are so full of botox 
They can't even blink 
Can only be watched with the aid of a stiff drink
The mind boggles
How low can we go
Watch the show

Repetition - Excerpt From Experimental Novel -

Now transition, a transit repositionment, a white car super-imposed with consumerist propaganda. Long rectangular prism solid moving, propelled by inflatable tubes circular, and the foul engine. A refridgerator that keeps the hole in the ozen fresh and crispy. 
So I'm in this thing... and the seats are filled with characters; your second generation immigrants thankful to afford a spot in the faux refugee parade, an accolade, to the American dream, staged.

And once again the prism, because last night was just too much of a blur to remember- like an unwanted poem:

Repetition,
last day was same,
and how to remember,
Monday from Thursday,
and months
only by the weather
and the multitoned coughs,
of interchanging drivers,
if poetry is false,
then all the world's a liar
a twist and shake with truth,
and the multicolored boots
of attractive women who do 'the eyeroll'-
Wolf don't love, don't care,
they wouldn't survive in the woods out there.

The Hate Parade

May I be so bold, 
as to not be sold, 
into trade, 
flaunted in your consumerist... parade, 
I shall not whirl, I shall not twirl, 
I shall not be part of your shallow world, 
and although you may poke and prod, 
I will reject your king and god, 
for I myself know what I am, 
not you, or them, or Uncle Sam, 
for I now know what it's like to "be", 
I have found individuality.

Racism

Always have been a victim of apartheid
How does one feel?
When he is a victim not a victor
When he is ruled not a ruler
No room of his own
No empty space left to exploit
Cannot even sit and think vagabonded
Each minute captured, consumerist
Deprived of freedom, liberty, reconciliation
Democracy buried, only dictatorship
And a suspended inferiority complex.
The scapegoat of cultural sadism
Insanity dawns, humans abandon
A marked, distinguished prison.
