In These Times Poem by DM W

In These Times

Rating: 5.0


O in these times, cartoon and advertisements
Are sets of symbols and signifiers,
For a whole manner of things which don't exist.
They inhabit imaginative worlds.
They're only 'alive' in a commercial sense.
For they help to sell a vast range of products.

Reality and how to handle it or deal with it or contribute to it are no taught in school. Another well expressed poem, Dominic.

Thanks Michael...I'm currently studying sociology: short course at my local university. I had a brilliant discussion with the lecturer this week, about so called postmodern culture, and it inspired me to write the poem.
