COMMERCIALISM
Can a gecko really influence car insurance decisions?
Will a jolly blob of dough
With a jovial laugh
Sell more biscuits?
How about battle scarred Viking Warriors
Hell-bent on pillage and plunder
Quelled by a credit card in my wallet?
Please
Cell phone technicians
Walk the earth in increments
Stopping at three second intervals
“Can you hear me now?”
The Sahara desert may be a problem
Then there is Uri
Hawking alcoholic beverages
In sub zero conditions
He never drinks and sleds
Sound advice in Siberia
Madison Avenue genius
High priced creativity
Can make or break a product
Some brilliant
Most simply garbage
Dependant on public acceptance
Personally
My intelligence cannot be bought
Insulted
By such psychological gibberish
My intentions
Deepest desires
To let my message do the talking
My work
Shall stand alone on its merit
Regardless of greedy opportunist
Hope
Encouragement
Kindness
Needs no gimmicks
Simply an open mind
Sell out?
I would rather starve
