buying the myth

if you watch tv enough,
toothpaste will make you happy.

as will beer.
as will a new car, or truck.

a trip to some island where 
everyone

is tanned and slender with
good hair.

if you watch the screen for
a lifetime
you

see how unreachable happiness
is.

how can you possible
have all that.

get the girl, the money,
the house when you're here

on the couch, watching this.

it makes you want to quit.
