"marketer" poems - Hello Poetry

All of the Gnomes from around the globe Just sneezed their very last sneeze They've had enough of this allergy stuff And from the garden they're taking their leave They packed up their bags, donned their bonnet's and caps Left in the cover of night Said goodbye to the trees along with the birds and the bees And headed out for the big city life No one had a clue from which wind the Gnomes blew It was Wa-La they were suddenly there From Bankers to Lawyers to Tele-marketer callers They infiltrated every career Soon they were drinking like fountains as the bills started mounting With the pressures of the ride to the top Pills became an everyday need to stay awake and fall asleep Not sure when this madness will stop On top of it all they started to cough from the smog And wondered which one was the worst The garden allergies or this black lung disease Either way the Gnomes felt mankind's curse So they turned in their suits and their ill gotten loot And took a trip back to the suberbs Now in the garden they smile cause they know all the while Yes...it could be a lot worse

~Garden Gnomes~

All of the Gnomes from around the globe Just sneezed their very last sneeze They've had enough of this allergy stuff And from the garden they're taking their leave They packed up their bags, donned their bonnet's and caps Left in the cover of night Said goodbye to the trees along with the birds and the bees And headed out for the big city life No one had a clue from which wind the Gnomes blew It was Wa-La they were suddenly there From Bankers to Lawyers to Tele-marketer callers They infiltrated every career Soon they were drinking like fountains as the bills started mounting With the pressures of the ride to the top Pills became an everyday need to stay awake and fall asleep Not sure when this madness will stop On top of it all they started to cough from the smog And wondered which one was the worst The garden allergies or this black lung disease Either way the Gnomes felt mankind's curse So they turned in their suits and their ill gotten loot And took a trip back to the suberbs Now in the garden they smile cause they know all the while Yes...it could be a lot worse

A human habit universal, our measure of success by possessions to envy. An infernal curse—commercial purveyors, trinkets of gold and gem, shining blinking, fabrics glistening; the value of thing manipulated by them insect kings. By lion's fang and butterfly guise they rule, a hubris deceiver upon their shoulder obscuring their likeness to those serfs upon whom they cunningly demand servitude, otherwise be starved, put out, forced to watch their future falter—sons and daughters failing in flight, their wings clipped prior first spanning. Locust clans spurred to fight over resources, who sell and buy back nature's bounty once formed anew into advertisement's subject. Oceans emptied of fish, forests becoming myth, uplands turned to wastelands, abomination fog a spherical prison choking earth's inhabitants—the marketer's dowry paid for marriage to a precarious economy. Royalty made rich at cost of labouring spine, but worse— our home and thereby our hope we consign. By their futile attempt to survive, the locust instinct to consume, until all is gone we contrive, the inevitable a meet with our doom—kings with stained glass wings to follow soon. So small are we amidst this vast existence; the ambitions of men barely bigger than an insect's significance.

The Locust Instinct

A human habit universal, our measure of success by possessions to envy. An infernal curse—commercial purveyors, trinkets of gold and gem, shining blinking, fabrics glistening; the value of thing manipulated by them insect kings. By lion's fang and butterfly guise they rule, a hubris deceiver upon their shoulder obscuring their likeness to those serfs upon whom they cunningly demand servitude, otherwise be starved, put out, forced to watch their future falter—sons and daughters failing in flight, their wings clipped prior first spanning. Locust clans spurred to fight over resources, who sell and buy back nature's bounty once formed anew into advertisement's subject. Oceans emptied of fish, forests becoming myth, uplands turned to wastelands, abomination fog a spherical prison choking earth's inhabitants—the marketer's dowry paid for marriage to a precarious economy. Royalty made rich at cost of labouring spine, but worse— our home and thereby our hope we consign. By their futile attempt to survive, the locust instinct to consume, until all is gone we contrive, the inevitable a meet with our doom—kings with stained glass wings to follow soon. So small are we amidst this vast existence; the ambitions of men barely bigger than an insect's significance.

Holy Crap, They Sold My Name! No big deal, your name, your email, bought n' sold daily, Like a baseball card, your picture and vital stats are on the internet, Your credit card in the fine print tells you they love you much, But the data they collect, might get credited to such and such. You're fair game if your sign up for anything. Now I know I am getting on in years, Tho spry rhymes with die, I flatly deny Any notion that My great beyond is just around the corner! But Holy Crap, They Sold My Name! Got a color brochure Suggesting that when my travels are over, A nice place to rest my head might be St. Michael's Cemetery. St. Michael's Cemetery 7202 Astoria Blvd, East Elmhurst (718) 278-3240 Friday hours 7:00 am–5:00 pm In case you want to check it out too... Tho I live not in the Borough of Queens County, My zip code but a hop, skip and jump away, The cemetery adjacent to the Grand Central Parkway Which is actually quite thoughtful of The mass marketer who dreamed up this scheme (And got paid a plentiful amount of bounty). My kids could wave as they drive by, On the way to LaGuardia or JFK, (airports) And say, guilt free, they visit me regularly! Sadly, their plot foiled, I will be buried in New Jersey soil, Near to my pop, who liked the Wide open spaces of suburbia And shopping on Route 4, Where the selection is great And there is no sales tax. But Holy Crap, They Sold My Name, And I am now target marketed, Niched, pretty soon the boys from AARP Will come calling, reminding me of the gap Tween Medicare and the poor house! Ok ok, grow up you say, tho your hair is full, And not even a hint of baldness shines forth, Nonetheless, its color is zebra striped gray, And when someone says they got my back, I think, please, please take it and keep it.... Oh yeah, Dear St. Mikes You might ask for some of your money back, Cause this sily scribe is a member of the tribe, Some call "those ***** (hint: it rhymes with Mikes)," It starts with K and ends in yikes! But thanks for thinking of me anyway.

you;re already ahead, you are alive nothing is clawing for your eyes and your heart still beats all with eternal time but yours is so, so short. a simile for a sunrise so why not call it quits, smile with the sun dear child because money isn't what the world is about in fact it scoffs at the idea. don't give an inch to the grabbers, the thief's who don't give you the inch they all play for keeps, and nothing is worth keeping why not call it quits and smile with the sun, it wont be there forever even though it may burn long while you're past. call it quits and live ****** there's nothing else to do. You can fight You can scratch, and for ***** sake you can bleed for it. but it wont bleed for you, and sometimes you need to bleed for the idol, to feel the empathy for all the souls, that run amok. It's all about the fight, life always has been. sincerity is all that bleeds for you, so if you want to bleed, let us bleed for each other. Call it quits ****** and think what few have dared to think. run wild with the wolves, you're instinct is what we need. not another lawyer, not another marketer, not another politician. God knows there are too many, and maybe the world doesn't need another poet. The words just feel too good to pass up. At least we're all dreamers, in an unsolicited land. If I failed to convey a point, all I mean is how beautiful we are in our absurdity, running amok, to portray serenity.

Why Not Call It Quits

you;re already ahead, you are alive nothing is clawing for your eyes and your heart still beats all with eternal time but yours is so, so short. a simile for a sunrise so why not call it quits, smile with the sun dear child because money isn't what the world is about in fact it scoffs at the idea. don't give an inch to the grabbers, the thief's who don't give you the inch they all play for keeps, and nothing is worth keeping why not call it quits and smile with the sun, it wont be there forever even though it may burn long while you're past. call it quits and live ****** there's nothing else to do. You can fight You can scratch, and for ***** sake you can bleed for it. but it wont bleed for you, and sometimes you need to bleed for the idol, to feel the empathy for all the souls, that run amok. It's all about the fight, life always has been. sincerity is all that bleeds for you, so if you want to bleed, let us bleed for each other. Call it quits ****** and think what few have dared to think. run wild with the wolves, you're instinct is what we need. not another lawyer, not another marketer, not another politician.

As our population grows our connection dwindles. Although the planet is evermore volumous, the human to human connection weakens. The media; the social, the printed, while simultaneously bringing updates throughout the world pulls apart basic day to day interactions. The king’s jester has left to become an internet marketer, taking with him the king’s title. The storyteller has become the publicists while leaving the stories to the kings. Power has become realized and is often quick and then lost. The gears have begun spinning and never again will be lost. For what it means to be human shall be hotly debated. For the king and his jester are no longer related. Time will lead to greater equality while simultaneously leading to greater poverty. There is no more dragon, for he has gone, and lost with him must return with dawn. We have reached night, but there will be day. Let us pray to the king, together, let’s pray.

Our Night and Our King

As our population grows our connection dwindles. Although the planet is evermore volumous, the human to human connection weakens. The media; the social, the printed, while simultaneously bringing updates throughout the world pulls apart basic day to day interactions. The king’s jester has left to become an internet marketer, taking with him the king’s title. The storyteller has become the publicists while leaving the stories to the kings. Power has become realized and is often quick and then lost. The gears have begun spinning and never again will be lost. For what it means to be human shall be hotly debated. For the king and his jester are no longer related. Time will lead to greater equality while simultaneously leading to greater poverty. There is no more dragon, for he has gone, and lost with him must return with dawn. We have reached night, but there will be day. Let us pray to the king, together, let’s pray.
