Selling Something

I get mad
when people suggest I should care
and don't provide
the requisite video montage
don't set
don't stop believing
to sync up with their spiel

I'm a modern day man
and demand
on-demand imagination
sentimental pornography
of pay-per-view children
with flies on their faces
and distended bellies

For a dollar a day
I could tend that belly
and get updated monthly
or weekly
or daily
on the child's blog
I ate today

I'd write in the comments
I ate today too
and leave my name
as anonymous
the dollar a day guy
who doesn't really care
but genuflects just the same
