Over the Trumpet Blasts

By Andrew R. Duckworth

We have the new thing,
The new thing the TV
Told us to get,
Waiting for us to break it.

We have the latest tech,
The thing that just released.
We had to have it
Before all the others.

Here, put on these headphones!
They block out other noise,
Although it is hard to hear much
Over the trumpet blasts.

The chaotic world will
lull you into a dead sleep.
