Still Life

[(Wordy)]

Siddhārtha Gautama, the Buddha,
sits on top of the left speaker
above the TV, the VCR, the DVD player,
the CDs, the home vids,
the music & films made meek by our rejection,
the Playstation, the games cartridges,

and the PS controllers with snaked cables
are like telephones without powers
of speech or hearing.

The Buddha waits on top of the left speaker;
on top of the right speaker is a Dalek figurine
with 5 different sound effects
at the press of a button
& a moveable eye.
