| Reality TV The advent Of reality television That has flooded The culture Leads to the question Can you live a Valid life If you never appear on TV? Is there any reality in "reality TV?" What kind of people Desire to parade themselves Into edited exhibitions Performing for the Cyclops eye of a Camera? Why are so many people Addicted to watching People whose Very essence and Behavior is being Changed by the Knowledge that They are being recorded For consumption by An “audience”. Ubiquitous, Hollow celebutantes “Famous for being Famous” In a Andy Warhol 15 seconds of fame. I feel sick, Convulsed with Desires to Puke Out of revulsion To these pitiful Spectacles Reminiscent of Locust infestations. To think that Elsewhere there Are chanting Buddhists Trying to Dissolve their Egos Into the Vastness of The universe. To escape The prison Of the self. It soothes the senses to know. The antidote For The Snake Bite Venom. |
