You can comfortably exist
within the narrow parameters
of standard contentment
Max out your credit cards
on superfluous excess
Social media boast
about your choreographed happiness
Maybe level set with medications
when you conscience starts to ache
Mute that nagging voice
when it whispers
about a life that is so fake
You can comfortably exist
Contently suckling on society's teat
with millions of ravenous piglets
Growing more bloated by the day
What a great ham sandwich you will be
when the butcher comes to visit
