ephemeral what?

ephemeral what?

A Poem by clairekeown25

With your 50 second cheeseburger,

your one night only cockteaser,

your fast track ticket, fibreoptic widget,

weightless high performance gadgets,

and your pro plus tablets

Evolution of modernity

He's the accelerated speed freak

of immediacy

Your the radiation wave

At high frequency

 

Get to work even faster,

With the light framed GearMaster!

We'll tear down antiquating farms,

For your fuel pumped highway cars,

Extra pure Morrocan dream

exported directly from the fields

pump that nose with gasoline

Hear learned spasms on the screens

Grab Bag, skip the queue

Asda deliver to your room

ten minute lesson on the web,

French revolution, Got it! Robespierre, death.

Speed of light to quantum dots,

In just an hour you'll know the lot.

Why fix it if you can buy it cheap,

Upgrade and Dump, and use greenspeak!

Motivate. Buy self help books.

These protein pills, that classic look.

Flatter stomach in just one week!

High speed surgery, eek,

think you gotta leak.

Keep smiling and never admit defeat.

Don't you understand? Theres no time for the weak!

 

Oh my boyfriend doesn't earn a dime!

F**k him, you can just date onlne,

one minute match to your dream partner in crime,

In love and life

and climax time.

Room service and a mini bar

You don't even need to walk from your car.

We'll hoist you up and hose you down

Hook you up and watch you drown

In credit offers, in short term loans

Life insurance for those aging bones

Better hurry up before you ossify

Its a race to the coffin once you hit 35

 

Speedicook, 15 minute meals,

Psychotherapists got me on my knees.

"in just three weeks you can be like me"

well if it doesn't work out there's always benzadrine...

Crash course in obscenity

With open arms I await you insanity

Your arbitrary charms may offer some release

Just the thought of you has stopped me writing this piece.
