A MODEL PERSPECTIVE OF PERVERSION (Apropos Models On Parade)

A MODEL PERSPECTIVE OF THE PERVERSION OF LIFE

(Apropos Models on  Parade)

Mocking humanity and the children of death—

Hunger and starvation—

Her frail skeletal frame of a body

Wrapped in cloths of richness of life,

Strode and glided across the flushed runway.

As she faded away like smoke of a dying fire,

Thunderous applauds echoed throughout.

Across the parched desert-like clods, bloated bellies

Wearily trek alone the barren trail that seems to lead nowhere;

Overhead, winged angels of death glide to and fro—patiently.

Dry winds echo over the exodus of the walking dead.

Strange how the rich pervert starvation and parade themselves

To a distorted mocking beauty of lush living;

While bloated bellies are fatal victims of starvation’s perversity:

Shamelessly paraded as “Breaking News!”
