Lumpy and unsupported for most of their days
her breasts are undesired.
She looks in the mirror and knows she's well endowed,
and enjoys the fullness of her breasts.
The fat on her body jiggles in the most unattractive way
driving people to avoid her.
She walks past a window and loves the curves she sees.
When I lay eyes upon her grotesque and beastly form I cringe
knowing she has done this to herself.
Her voluptuousness draws gazes both curious and yearning.
Whenever I see her an ugliness over comes me.
Beautiful is the person who carries themselves with pride.
She is redefined.
Author notes
My sister, Lagemas, and I have both written this poem. (Should've been there!)
Italics are mine and hers are the bold. I was saying what society says and she is saying what she says.

Absolutely brilliant collab!!! If only more could see things the way the second voice portrays... The first parts were so powerful in the voice that society creates, so damning! And the second a voice of power in defiance against what society rules as beauty!
Outstanding!
