My Best Friend

My Best Friend


I watch my TV
for
flat screen
reality

love my HD

high definition

magnifies
imperfections

even love
the commercials

keeps me
culturally
in tune

sometimes

I watch the news

so I can
understand
the
human condition

pretty faces
subtly
slant the world

biased bitches!

so

I don't believe
anything 
they say

who are they
anyway?


I will not jump 
when
they say leap

who are they 
anyway?

they be not me
that much I know

they want my
individuality

so they can
statiscally 
define me

and peddle
their wares

to our junkie
consumer
economy

who are they
anyway?

they

be 
the 
machine
