No Commercial Breaks

One minute wonders
One minute drags
They’ve raised the price of cigarettes
Filters between drags.
Let the brainwashing commence
No silence found in anyplace
Say good bye to common sense.
Corporations snigger while laughing
I just forgot the show I was just watching.
These one minute wonders  
have gone too far
Why do I have the sudden urge  
to take out car insurance
When I don’t own a car?
In one minute, I could have told her
In one minute, I could hold her.
Like being tortured slowly
with thumbs screws tied to the rack,
60 seconds gone in a minute
that i will never get back.
