bombarded with outer perfection
surrounded with glamour
is any woman portrayed
in her real manner?

You give me make up to hide behind
you write blogs that tell me to be attractive
you govern my beauty with your outlook
and say you want me natural as it is

What a hoax!
If you wanted perfection, buy a barbie doll
it is less expensive and has the emotions you demand
If you wanted ***, talk to your hand
Your preferences are polished yet so bland
If you want glamour, go and read
a barbaric and well-suited magazine
But if you want a woman who's real and true
Don't look at billboards, look in front of you
Media portrays women as these perfect beings and such depictions just create a more  demanding and superficial society
