There was a story.
I heard it more than once before.
Some thing that they sold me.
I kept the receipt from the store. Packaged so lovely.
Smiles on their faces, a happy picture.
But inside it’s all broken.
The story never mentions failure.
Just that we must buy it, but I’m not sold.
I’m not buying it, I’m not sold.
What happened? How did I get here?
I swore I expressed my thorough disinterest.
It’s so productive to make people into products.
We’re just walking products.
Did you get a number at the door?
We’re selling a new breed of customer.
Viva Americana. I guess nobody’s free and that nothing is free.
So you better keep your receipt.
