Consumerism
We are getting old my wife and I
we do not consume much.
The washing machine is old
and our car is going on fifteen, yet
it starts but of course we no longer
use it as often as before.
This makes us poor consumers
the ads on TV are not aimed at us.
Today we bought a new TV,
this pleased my wife it made her feel
important and the shop staff called
her madam.
Assist death, the ultimate triumph of
capitalism
as those who cannot consume
are redundant.
The last expense
is the casket, even here capitalism
is pressuring relatives to buy
an expensive one,
no one will see
unless attend the funeral.
But as for now we are safe
the new TV will keep us safe.
