Cookie-Cutter Conformity (Objects May Appear Closer Than They Actually Are) Poem by Michael Fischer

Cookie-Cutter Conformity (Objects May Appear Closer Than They Actually Are)



Penny-pinching coupon-cutters
slaving for a cut-rate bargain.
Watchword pundits stand on pulpits;
The same old news gets reprinted.

Recycled second-rate lyrics
causing stinging noise pollution.
Cookie-cutter conformity;
Join us in the institution!

Old man-eating silver panners;
Are you hungry for a hot meal?
Forty-niners skipping land mines;
Are you ready to make a deal?

When ready Misses Doe,
sign on the dotted line;
The pen writes in your blood.
And also, be sure to
take advantage of our
protection agreement!

God's boot-lickers, Nick's war-shipers;
Praying to your skull and crossbones.
Cookie-cutter conformity;
Follow me to your brand new home!

Women-eating two-timing bulls;
Are you hungry for a hot meal?
Literary raiders at seize;
Are you ready to make a deal?

When ready Mister Doe,
sign on the dotted line;
The pen writes in your blood.
And also, be sure to
take advantage of our
protection agreement!

Freebooting's not a crime!
Freebooting's not a crime!
Freebooting's not a crime;
As long as you're free to!
