Poetry: This is now

by Nick Vandell

Created on: January 30, 2011

WE CAN'T SEE

A sad presumption

A victom of consumption

Jumpin at sales on TV

We Can't See

 Noisy Chatter

It clouds what really matters

Searching for things we can't see

We Can't See

We Can't See

Go out and swim in the ocean

or lie under the sun and keep roasting

We Can't See

Go outside and climb a tree

or take a long drive across the country

We Can't see

We Can't see

Listen we’re nourished by Cell phones,

Nourished by IPODS and Texting

Video games all for me

We Can't see

We’re eating fast food

We’re ridin in fancy cars

My connection on my cell phone has 5 bars

Buy one and get one for free

We can't see

We Can't See

Go out and swim with the dolphins

or grab a pole some bait and go fishing

We Can't See

Go out and tour and see great lands

or raging rivers, great seas and small islands

We Can't see

We Can't see

A thousand and eighty pixels

A 60 inch plazma TV

An electronic blindfold of fantasy

We Can't see

go out and swim in the ocean

or lie under the sun and keep roasting

We' Can't see

go outside and climb a tree

or take a long drive across the country

We Can't see

We Can't see

A sad presumption

A victom of consumption
