I read Noam Chomsky's Manufacturing Consent; 

now, whenever I'm made to involuntarily digest

a paid, consumer-goods advertisement -  

Coca-Cola, McDonalds, a free trial on Netflix - 

.

I am filled with a deep sense of societal loathing

and the gentle revival of existential dread.

    I guess I must be woke.
