CONFISCATION

An infatuated state
of passionless
mind control optics
checks out
over a thin skinned media
in a consoling megaphone
and teleprompter
of our own aphasia
in this aged abyss
of body language
amid color digital T.V.'s
brutality contained
as a mad scene in Macbeth
in an impersonal
acting speech
striking out at us all.
