Sarah Martens - Delusions

2014-06-13 21

Violating our bodies…
Violating our minds…
Violating our self – image…
Violating our person…

Manipulating innocence
Innocence disrupted by provocative ads
Ads ever surrounding…
Surrounding saturation of false happiness…
Happiness is this and this and this and this and…

and I am sunk into these delusions
Of perfection
Like
My feet sink
Into hot tar
In the summer…

Bound to fall some time.
