Persuasion
(a poem convincing
consumers to buy into a company)
America,
Home of the Free
Land of the consumer
Where we are told
“Buy in bulk”
“Bigger is better”
“Get more for your
dollar”
And we are consumers
People that have
given into:
“Just Do It”
“One Stop Shopping”
And “the next big
thing”
Michigan
Home of the Fords,
North Carolina
The Wright Brothers,
And so much more,
But today what it has
come down to is:
“the new iPad”
“pc mag’s best rated
computer”
“the top safety pick”
“the best luxury
vehicle”
People have given
into companies
Without any thought,
And the persuasion of
the ad
Has become the face
of America.
