Credit cards, sealed lifts and covert sanitation Processed meat and a national waste disposal system: The scale of deception begs the question what it is we're burying Cosmetics, contact lenses and plastic surgery: Bulk orders for yet more imperial finery Double-glazing for phasing out suspicions that this is really happening It seems this season the cool kids are sporting white canes and braille zines And when I close my eyes am I invisible?
