Warning, What they sell is a lot and not necessarily a good thing

They sell Viagra, or a cheaper more generic pill for every male,
and the idea behind it is, hey, every guy has the right to an erection no matter,
but at least it should be affordable, never mentioning procreation,
or a womans right to choose - that one's high on the agenda these
days, it's a dog gone saturation of the public airwave's kind of sell!

They sell plastics in every shape and form, single use for your convenance,
in the billions and trillions, the data is big, if there was only an AI to point
this much out, some would say singularity has already set in,
Hey kids, my mom was a nurse, they used to sterilize glass syringes,
the good and the bad, and heroin.

The NRA used to sell gun safety policy; and then the gun industry took over the NRA,
and then the Supreme Court weighed in, buying into a myth about the Second Amendment.
Something was sold in that regard, that a whole lot of families could easily question
but sadly their voices remain silent, no, its not the guns, not the bullets damaging
the skin, for we need to be sold the guns for our freedom - the very bedrock
of freedom.

They sell stuff, and they ain't all bad, they just want to make some money,
and employ some of us.

Where do we all work, who do we all work for, what is the narrative,
is it fast food, a department store, a grocery, the postal service, the schools,
the hospitals, the railroads, the marines, the auto garages, insurance companies,
the clothes, the house builders, the mechanics, the crafts folk, the medical workers,
and the first line emergency workers, and politicians we all elect?

And what is it being sold?

Toilet paper, Man Ray was an American visual artist who spent most of his life in Paris.
The idea of the given time, The Rayo Graph juxt oppose to the Petroglyph.

Where art is the thing, the conveyance as a part of truth.
Where the saying, Let the buyer always beware, always does truly paint the scene.

(please do use art, only, if only to think)
