We often seem to have an economy where the promotion for goods — advertisements — are better than the goods themselves. And there are so many of the damn things, too...
Adversion
You turn, they’re there, they’re everywhere,
Proliferating madly;
Those product ads for stuff, for fluff,
We can’t avoid them, sadly.
They fill our days with endless hype,
This pitch is never muted;
Buy this, buy that, enrich your life,
It leaves our brains polluted.
More sex, strong bones, a smoother ride,
They flout it, tout it, shout it;
Such energy! Creative drive!
Too bad they don't reroute it.
