Wannabe

I wanna be instamatic, 
I wanna be a frozen pea, 
I wanna be dehydrated, 
in a consumer society.  

I wanna be tasted, 
I wanna be a faster food,
I wanna be digested,
inside the social zoo.

I wanna be inspected, 
I wanna be renewed, 
I wanna be dissected,
and put on public view.

I wanna be injected, 
I wanna be the queen, 
I wanna be plugged into, 
an IBM machine,  

I wanna be a new look,  
I wanna be a star,
I wanna be the fingers
inside the cookie jar.  

I wanna be updated,
I wanna be a sigh,
I wanna be the apple,
of the public eye.  

By Jove !

Hi Judy

Thank you very much for saying that. I am so thrilled that I have a few fine folks like yourself to read the rantings of an old , skinny, over opinionated,long haired hippy! Another Quote if I may ." It's only words, and words are all I have, to take your heart away " ! I will post more, many, many more, as long as I have you and the others to read them . By Jove !
