All the brands are broadcasting
we’re all in this together
which is why you should buy
our thing instead of another
or hand over your data
which we promise we will only sell
at a tremendous profit
meanwhile they are blocking
the ambulances on the freeway
with extraneous vehicles as
they stand gathered against the glass
wearing familiar red imported hats
to voice their bluster concern
that the propaganda they consume
isn’t making them sick enough
meanwhile the paper of record
puts the photos of hospital workers
in black and white relief
as another way of saying
this hasn’t happened like this
in over a century and shouldn’t
be happening now except
for all the warnings in plain sight
that didn’t make it to our eyes
someone was blocking the view
