i am no size 2
but
i am not a size 22
i am no waif
on a runway
curves of the mountains
to the fertile lands
i will not starve
with the fruit, i bare
nor
find vomit upon my pillow
i am your modern goddess
paint me into your mind
because
i will not be denied
turned away or forgotten
i stand tall
no rug for you to lay upon me
your feet shall never dirty my back
but your mind will explore
my spoken words, opinion
intelligence free falling
not hiding behind my hair
