They gave the puppet the greatest prize, his strings tangled in foreign conflict. You looked away with sullen eyes, connected to mobile devices. Lose yourself to a website, your life is now an advertisement. Sell yourself and your time. The market made you the product. To satisfy a lust for pride you subscribe yourself the latest gossip. Human tragedies are publicised, purge them with designer diets. When the star's death was televised you watched on awe inspired. Saw the film, bought the shirt and even cried. Dead Celebrities are easy to market.
When they handed you the large bill for a perscription you were forced to fill, at that point did you start to feel that you were cut a raw deal? Your silence was golden on the bidding floor. Your health negotiated behind closed doors at the mercy of Pharmaceutical interest. They set the prices, now they regulate the business.
Where did your anger go?
Distraction. Inaction. Pacification.
Turn away from the screen and face reality.
