Junk Friday Poem by Jan Oskar Hansen

Junk Friday
I was going to write about consumerism but thought
What the fucking point when people get up at five
To buy tumble drier they already have or a computer
The one they have can be upgraded
But I'm missing the point people like new shiny object
Like crows buy what the already have, and it is good
For the business to consume it keeps people at work
Even if the product is made far away.
I don`t think this junk do anything for the employment
Figure other that robbing the soil for mineral, but I know nothing
Old fashion not thinking we need what we have but the laugh
And tell I know nothing of modern appliances.
So you can have your Black Friday be fooled by capitalism
That knows you like shiny things
