Life in pictures

On the TV they show

domestic bliss in

sitcoms

where wife snipes

at husband

and he attempts escape

at every opportunity.

In the movies they show

the glamour of

gangsters

where the girl simpers

over muscles

and he holds her leash

of finely woven diamonds.

On billboards they show

the heroism of

models

where bodies speak

in gospel

and taglines share life's truth

that consumption makes you matter.
