More on the ideas of sex, violence, and consumption

just turn on the tv

we'll talk about this later

see

we're normal again

everything will be fine

like all those people

you'll see

like in the movies

they love each other

even when the rain starts falling

their fists won't start flying

they always kiss

and have great make up sex

see......

sex solves everything

and love

two things we all get

tangled up in

always sticky

always so messy

see

this never makes us happy

all the love and sex

they're just distractions

like shopping

yes...... you see it!

love, sex, shopping

all the same

we don't even love ourselves

thats why we need

distractions

and........

PIE!

Yes! Pie sounds delicious

can it be apple pie?

like the one's they sell at Mcdonalds

that would be nice

the tv will have to do

i wonder what kind of sex they'll have today?

This is an interesting piece, and while it may be true for some i have to dissagree with the overall message that love is like shopping:P

but i understand how youd see it that way, and sex too, has lost its power for most. Its something cheap and common and meaningless to most... but for some of us these things still hold a spark, a meaning, hope...

You do a great job, of portraying the common person though, how a large majority of modern people think. It is avery nice write:P i like pie too... it does sound really delicous...
