I thought it was true...

'they' say you can have it all,

who the fook is 'they'??

Oh dear, I feel so guilty now for not getting to this piece sooner...I WAS looking for this one though if you know what I mean...if that's not Frieda, I don't know who is ;D I'm so glad you were able to relate to this pic...

And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door,
She cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?"

Haven't quoted HIM in a little while huh? I was due ;) xo

'They' know what they can do. And if 'they' come anywhere near me again the next time they will see 'it' will be on one of their own X rays.
I like this Frieda. But then you knew I would.

Clever illustration, and just for the record, I despise 'them' who form the 'they' group in the society. :P

I have no clue, 'they' could be us, I suppose, hopefully not, thanks Lori!
'They' must refer to the optimists of society, as they claim you are able to have it all, yet are unwilling to churn over their fair claim on the world. For who actually owns the world, if we all simultaneously do?
