How Black is Your Friday ?

Still Shopping Baby ? – You’ll never know what just hit/missed you….

When Black Friday comes
I’ll stand down by the door
And catch the grey men when they
Dive from the fourteenth floor
When Black Friday comes
I’ll collect everything I’m owed
And before my friends find out
I’ll be on the road

Still Shopping Baby ?

The Consumers of Gridville
huddle in the parking lots
in predawn frozen blackness
waiting for the sensor doors
to activate and swing open
so that the ensuing stampede
into the widget warehouse
can gush cheap trinket
torrents of electronic desire
to purge themselves
of what limited imaginations
they have left and have not
squandered and impaled
upon product acquisition

*

Suggestions programmed
to them by fiber optic
daily behavioral vampires
so well appointed
with glistening fangs
of fashion compulsion
obsessive consumption
in a I-Pad-I-Phone I- Me Me Me Me vortex
instantly alerting them
of the nowhere
they lust

*
Is here
In stock
On Sale

*
And they simply cannot
live with or without it.
