Lost Within The Loop Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Lost within the loop.
Giving up mentalities,
To TV programs and commercial teases.
Disconnected completely from world affairs.
And attached to that which keeps them latched...
Onto a lack of concern.

Lost within the loop to spin...
A regurgitation over and over again.
With such thoughtlessness that disregards a seriousness.
Burning to a crisp...
An effective comprehending consciousness.

And they all in conformity came to agree this activity...
Should not and would not be taken personally!
Leaving them to question and scratching their heads,
When the monotony interrupted...
Would for them return.
To continue a comfort they missed and yearned...
In a dumbed down and safe existence.
Managed and learned in a fantasized survival.
