The Gobuttzian Age

[saw]

Who could have known they weren't human,
those evil spin doctors - subliminal messages,
of course, so easy, so technology friendly.

Every time you log on to your computer
from deep in the bowels of your hard drive,
Gobuttzian images are secretly being stored

in your cranial basement, every time
you listen to your CD player, each disc
changes the way you are thinking through

encrypted information with "lofty" Gobuttzian
values, that enter your audio canal and continue
into the medulla oblongata where you are changed

by a fraction of an inch into a more suitable human being,
one that will obey Gobuttzian rule.
What do think is happening when that cool wet mist

blows in your face while you wrestle with veggie choices ?
Gobuttzian BrainSwitch Pellets are entering
your nasal cavities where they move on up into

the frontal lobe where brain cells surrender
to the all-morphing medicine. Gobuttzers are a race
of aliens that have learned that it is more effective

to change humans imperceptibly slow, why dirty your hands
with needless revolution, they always say....Gobuttzers
are patriotic, freedom-loving folks who will hunt down

and eliminate anyone or anything that remotely tries
to interfere with their visions of a perfect world, or anyone
or thing that dares to impede their crusade

for peace and freedom.

saw! are you crazy or what? you, of all people, should know you definitely should not be mentioning the... uh... the "G-word"... not here, not anywhere on the internet!! gawd...I'll say good words about you in my contemplations. I just hope 'they' don't know or find out about... this!

carry on.... cautiously, very cautiously... please.

Resistance is Fu-tile...

But they haven't gotten me yet. Or have they?...

[saw]

it may be too late...the dumbing down is working like a charm....
thank the stars for poets...their imagination is boundless....
as for wars on nebulous things like TERROR...wars that are intended
they say, to insure our freedom...I hope there are enough of us around to demand the answer to the question, ....At What Cost ?

[mnaz]

Yes. Slavery to that strain of "Freedom" is hardly freedom.
