What soap opera?
what circus?
No....its Goggle-bore
yes....you heard right, goggle-bore
We watch them as they entertain us with their soaps fixation
we laugh at their obvious obsessions
there's pathos in their escapism
we see the mediocre in distraction from their insignificance
we see how they crave relevance and loose themselves in fantasies
we see their various takes on characters in their imagined world
we get glimpses of their inner selves from their interpretations of
scenes and characters
we see how they fill voids in their mundane lives
we see how their untutored imaginations run wild
and how they become totally immersed in their fantasies
that it becomes interactive to them
the lines between reality and fantasy disappear
they do not know the difference between truth and false-hood
they have suspended disbelief to the hilt
and therein is the pathos  to the watchers of this sad spectacle
there a millions of vacuous minds
millions of unfulfilled lives
millions of sad pathetic insignificant mob
millions of psychologically unbalanced people
all looking for help and answers
for fulfillment and some sort of recognition
and only finding succour in their addictions to soap
We watch them as they are in the real soap
that shows so much about the human condition
What a soap, what a circus......
