Pleasure-inducing mindless hype...
Food for the masses, candy coated hype!
You can't tell me...
Yes, it's true!/Everyone does it, exactly like you!
But the things I...eyuch! That's out of style!
But wasn't the time worth your while?
The hoping, the pleasing, the plotting and scheming...
Someone please tell me this thought-form is dreaming!
My life can't be destroyed by the things that I do!
These repetitive tasks are the proliferation of you
Only through mindless, useless motions...
I WILL NOT BE ANOTHER DROP IN THIS OCEAN!
I can't waste away making everything right!
Then don't spend your time looking for fights
The only strife comes from having your morals
Your worthless rules grow on you like corals
My scruples and conducts, barring my fame?
My policies and manners keep me from shame!
Please tell me, abstraction, from which hell were you wrought?
I'm made from your ego, deep in thought
That voice inside that doubts your brain
The check to your balance, to keep you insane

From the tittle to the final line, this is a sexy piece of words.
 
It goes from a beguiling TV ad-like sales pitch into a vitriolic outburst against the world.

I also like the interchanging of voices between italix and regular font.

Well thought out!
:)
 
So powerful, so sprung. In almost every poem you write, you grab the reader and through your words you don't let him go.
 
Thanks guys. I'm glad you like it.:)

I just wanted to try to write something that felt like it was a conversation.
