Quoting "Lawrence Upton" <[log in to unmask]>:
> An apparently joyous woman,
> leaning on large percentage signs,
> placed for lust’s interpretation:
> we perpetrate her with desire.
>
> Behind her, one window is shut,
> reflecting generalities,
> a mirror of our bland nature:
> she is there, wordless, to emote.
>
> She prides herself; and we watch her
> who is now, purchased, selling trust.
>
> Perhaps, tomorrow, it’ll be fresh fruit
> or her own lack of employment.
>
> Yesterday, it was sexy clothing.
> Soon, she’ll be portrayed in 3d
