    In my own
    pathetical
    wilderness of mind,
    I consume
    the fly shit food
    of fast industry.
    I fuel the rip-off.

    I justify
    the five dollar tag
    for secret sauce
    burger and fries,
    as price of admission
    for entertainment;
    my ritual interrogation
    of mindless staff.

    This time however,
    no offensive
    bullshit advertizing
    literature
    catches my eye.

    For a change
    I am bored
    as I eat
    the cow in a box.

    Great poem! Excellent intro, the first stanza really grabbed me; and the whole thing was well written, the rhythm worked and the ending is interesting, leaves you thinking...maybe there's hope?
