((Finally-finally, thanks to the sharp eye of C.H.))

selfish-esteem business booms
stocks soar no accountability
for age recession for complaint
for badness bear holey right
socks but they ask blood for
basics beg attention all turns
twist break bone then skin to
bask in beautiful tone propaganda
the boys into late nights in lofts
laps and lingering i thought she
was in love print pamphlets on
the subject of she’s pie charts
line graphs explaining how
exponential need be in minds
like these the sorts represented
across a nation’s windows
programmed to weigh below
120, hip = bust, iq (<) complexion

mathematics skin-centered

society what difference between

blemish-free actress selling

lipstick t-shirt bottled water and

her beaming grandmother poster-

printed heiling for genocide

takes breasts low body fat to

pitch the product eye locked on

boy-prize proclaim the notch

above and SMILE so her tears

burn passersby who hear i’m not
allowed to have fun theories in
meaning-over-makeup: beauty
contests prettied-up penis envy
betray all allies boost sales and
swear your target peace of mind
