Happiness

the new poison for the millennial masses

sold in self help books by spiritual pushers

and emotion pimps

sold as a needle, to shoot into arms

between toes

and into eye sockets

sold to the millions of dull yoga minds

and blank stare Buddhas

Consumerist Zen, trademarked

sold in diet form

in cans

and artificially sweetened

peace 

sold to old men and young women 

in yoga classes

and meditation sessions

the spiritual junkies 

the happiness addict

the blind fire of fake bliss

and when they finally come down

Beware!

there is no greater evil than those who claim to fight it
