F L a T L a N D

To resist the op(press)ion 
of the two (dement)sional flatland world of glossy magazines,
I have (ob)seen women

Mutilate their forearms with deep(er) strokes of a razor
So that they may prove with their b(lo)ody
To themselves and their (conf)users
That their image (has depth)

Has depth (their image

Has depth)
