Ignoring The Blah, Blah, Blah In Life

Another infomercial

Too many commercials

Are vamping up numerous

News trials are always

The focus of media attention

Making their ratings a rendition

So they can go through the roof

While the media crew is still

Looking for juicy morsels

Of scandalous discrepancies

While trying to prove all

Gossiping whisperer's

Have been

Promoting more lies

Than the real truth

That lies behind

The lens of a motion picture camera

A variance of euphoria

Has persuaded our stream of consciousness

For the time being

We've always catered to need

For not comprehending and Ignoring The Blah, Blah, Blah In Life

I really like the language in this, but I'm not sure about the line breaks. (I am also the last person on earth you should ask for advice about line breaks, so that's the last I will say about that.) I think it has a crispness that is really nice, but I would advise you to be very careful with your diction and make sure you are really saying exactly what you want to say. (if that makes any sense at all. . .)

Love it! There is way too much blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah in life! I wish we didn't have to listen to infomercials or commericals or an extermporanious information that we didn't want to. Because lets face it...its BORING! This on the other hand was not.

A very relevant and well-stated social commentary...actually I wrote a piece with the same theme about five years ago but I don't think I've ever posted it, I'll have to check sometime...great work as usual here though :)

That's funny and well pointed. Had read a Hindi article about the blah blah blahs leading to the accumulation of more and more waste 'brands' in market. Nice write!

[Holly Mason]

insightful words-I wonder if we did ignore the blah blah blah-would there even be television needs at all
love your title choice-drew me right in
promoting lies-because that is what gets the ratings
thank you for sharing much

[Helen Warner]

Well said! I wonder if everyone stopped watching and quit buying into the hype if The Blah Blah Blah would stop. Maybe then they would focus on real issues in life and something might actually change.......

Well I can dream can't I?
