My friend lifted up her shirt, showed her a bright red (not pink) belly, and told her mother she had been calling and informing the doctor's office for days. They simply told her it was normal to have pain, not to worry, and they could not fit her in for an appointment until the following week. From the site of my friends stomach, her mother rushed her to the emergency room in horror.

Dawe uses television jargon to further elaborate how consumerism has dehumanised humanly values. “Right between the Carol Burnett and the David Nixon show they fell in love.” Through the use of television and consumer jargon along with the satirical nature of the poem, we understand how consumers have been impacted through the media.

Oh, those massive, rippling thighs spreading whitely as bread dough on the car seat! At twelve I thought i'd die if my waist exceeded 21 inches”(9). This young girl had suffered from anorexia for years all because of how the media portrays “beautiful women.”.
It seems strange that she is still encountering this fear simply because she has been working in a salon for a total of 3 years, but she is still experiencing the same problems. I want to start with advertising, she literally shuts down while promoting her business. Instead, of promoting herself she promotes other ladies in the salon, by referencing to the Ad as they are instead of saying we are having a special on Tuesdays. She shuts down when a her clients ask her about a different style or if they communicate with her that they just don’t like the hairstyle. Instead of conversing with her clients and correcting the issue she will gladly converse with other stylist clients on a friendship basis.
With increasing urgency she had pleaded with her doctor to end her life. He and a colleague interviewed her several times to make sure she truly wanted to die; convinced that she did, and that there was nothing they could do to make things easier for her, they finally granted her wish. Consequently, her doctor gave her one injection to put her to sleep, another to make sure she was unconscious, and finally curare to bring on respiratory
