Because your worth it
The brightly coloured shaped plasticity,
Of gently whispered lies cloud my senses.
Obscuring the real,
Behind a sweet smelling shroud ,
Of promised paradise.
The sickly sweet, aroma, so sensual ,
Is both chemical and false,
Much like the images we become obsessed by.
The allure of commerciality, peddling
Meaningless pipe dreams, the perfect con,
Perpetuated by our witless desire to live a dream
The textured bottles and packages lure us in,
Separating us from what is,
After all an amazing journey,
Full of texture, colour, sound and aroma,
Enough for any being.
The tragedy is, that in our grasping,
For these false ideals,
Dreams we can never hold,
We forget to participate,
And we are gone.
But the brightly coloured shaped plasticity,
Endures. It will never fade, until,
Eventually the earth turns,
Inhabited not by cockroaches,
Bt burger boxes and beer bottles,
And hair products that read
because your worth it
But are we?
And is it?
