| SOLLICITATIO VENDITATAE |

“Sollicitatio Venditatae” the vaunting of public taunting

flaunting convenience and appeasements for the wanting

a jaunting needs the seeds of deeds lecherously daunting

haunting wholesome someones into righteous bonding

responding to influence of the profiteers corresponding

absconding morals steered by the power of cleared checks

| SEX SELLS |

a carousel of corporate consideration for mass subjugation

adoration in the application of vivid subliminal presentation

affirmation simplified down to a catchy character animation

segmentation is strategized for optimal mental penetration

vindication with proclamation of change in local legislation

education deprivation filled by degradation dressed as honey

| MONEY IS POWER |

paid by the hour vastly under weighted minimum wages

stages to stick consumers into cultivated categorical cages

gauges for which everything is pitched on glossy front pages

all ages under siege with sounds and sights of the outrages

it engages self-preservation of individuality until it enrages

contagious conscription to societies glamorized ideals thereof

| PURE-LOVE CONQUERS |

going bonkers over clear rocks as the definition of desire

flier-wrapped walls willing preparation for a chance to retire

choir sung chorus chiming the time for a family sale on fire

buyer banter to bolster unique confidence under the wire

higher hype to stand in line waiting for it to transpire

acquire the taste of happiness with savory salacious-lies

| ADVERTISE HERE |

pseudo austere civilizations promote flirtation of every fixation

privation automation for specific proprietary spending allocation

vacation for less while sponsoring the solutions for starvation

gas station billboards mounted for location-location-location

quotation mutation of a good intention to evoke damnation

translation is in the effort to inspire a choice of one over the other
