Contemporary Mindfulness

It's today,
and everything is out there.

Not just out there,
ready to be here.

If medium was the message before,
now it's extra extra large.

News shapers live in every
living room.

Passivity's rewards come
to those who wait.

As one dissolves to no-self
from the air conditioned comfort
of an industrially produced cushion,
remember the fine print

from the commercial between plays:
brought to you 
by the cacophony
drowning out everyone else.
