We are robots
White bags, blue writing,
cardboard boxes with a smile,
lured in with the ease.
Long ago memories of
catalogs, order forms
4-6 weeks
Now it gnaws, bilious
reflexive, involuntary
We are robots.

I love the contrasting image of a smiling package luring consumers into its trap of ease.
Yes, “Long ago memories of/catalogs, order forms/4-6 weeks. We love that instant gratification.
Clever. I fought the Amazon monster until COVID took all the inventory out of the stores. It sits I warehouse waiting for robots. Love it.
