Food for thought

Snickers bar targets.
Popcorn parades,
Hotdog bombs,
And Post Pardon
Cheeto,
Frito,
Lay's.
Beef-Jerked
Turkey,
And
Peanut gallery serenades.
Sweet molasses,
Politically motivated,
And just as slow.
incoherent debates,
Between
Coke,
Pepsi.
All the same beast,
But
Two different faces.
Bottled water
And
Flavored oxygen. Savor the taste.
Scams of the damned.
Hungry and wired
with preprocessed,
pasteurized,
naturally,
unleaded,
for his or her pleasure,
zero grams,
trans fat free,
and filtered.
It's your choice...

And,

I choose...

No choice at all.

Give me the blueberry bagel.
At least,
I see
its' hollow from here.
