![]() Women and Legal Beauty CrimesA Poem by Ntandoyenkosi Ngcobo
Looking at my tv screen, in magazines and books,
I see woman photoshopped left and right, flaunting all their looks Selling themselves on the street for whatever money they can get, Posing nude in hopes they can make the grocery store gazette. Cutting off a few kilos on a screen doesn't seem so bad, But for the young girls with low self esteem it makes them very sad. It sadly gives them all unrealistic expectations, All because it gives more money to big shot corporations. In this society, women are like toys. Played, used, and broken by ungrateful little boys. A body part in your pants doesn't make you a man, Being a man is treating woman as equal as you can. They are a gift to a man, not a toy for sex, A woman's body is not something that a man should examine and vex. Be yourself and be proud of that, Because your smile is the only curve that someone should look at. This place we call our home values bodies more than books, Women cover up your chests and take a second look. Just because you have it doesn't mean you have to show, Wouldn't you rather be called princess than a hoe? So women button up your shirts and let down your hair, Because you are gorgeous no matter what you wear. Your body does not define you, you are a work of art. Because the true beauty that matters is what's inside your heart. © 2014 Ntandoyenkosi Ngcobo |
