Curves

Curves

A Poem by Liz
"

I am too a real woman.

"

These curves on my body,

Where my sunken eyes 

Dip

Into my skull.

Where my lips pout,

Where my shallow jaw

Sinks.

The small muscles in my arms

My thick,

Strong legs,

Bowing in and out.

My ribs,

Always poking through

Are as curvy as they get.

My hips that are hills on my torso.

My body is a landscape

Full of dips and bumps.

So before you

Deny my womanhood,

Before you take my right

To be loved,

Remember that I

Am just as

“Curvy”

As you.

Right on. I love how you are simultaneously refuting judgement, and asserting your self pride. Simply wonderful.
