You are a number; you are a bar code of existence.
One in a million, no, one of a million: you are just like the rest of them.
Same flavor, same substance……
Some are more artificial than others….
Each has their shelf-life, their expiration date.
Some grow finer with time, some lose their fiz.
Some hide in cans to try to stay young, but never see the light in life,
But ultimately they ripen, shrivel up, and rot away.
some come in multi-packs, “variety packs”…2 for 1 deals.
Some have brand names because they think that the wrapper they wear determines if someone likes them, others stick with the store brand.
Disposable, temporary, fake plastic, flemzy,
You live in the moment….
You bend and flex and…snap!..you are gone: another plastic fork in the trash…use you for a moment and then pitch you away after you purpose is served.
So much to choose from.
Milk…1%, 2%, whole, skim…it’s all milk…..all white…
but add a touch of chocolate…it’s still milk…..just with a different taste.
Time to check out.
Oh, those last-minute checkout items are so tempting, loitering by the register, temping you. Be strong.
Scan yourself.
Price check.
What are you worth?
