Faces Bodies                        Clothes                               that taunt us with perfection  On TV              Ads                      and Billboards                                too numerous to mention. Exercising                   Motorizing                                       Proselytizing                                so it goes…. Everywhere you turn to are solutions to all woes If you Use that scent                           Drive that car                                                   or Take that pill Great looks                      Good health                                             More wealth are yours and never mind the bill! But are We, the people so easily deceived that we can trust an item to meet our every need? Or have our minds’ convictions unwisely been conceived?
