Why Are My Curves Illegal?
Why are my curves illegal?
Are there too many to count?
Does my body offend thee,
When ye barely have one?
Is my circumference upsetting you,
Because you have none?
Their lack of gravity is seldom
called out on, but these unmanageable hips
My too many curves and these prepossessing thighs
are always drawn upon
Does mine body offend thee?
When the acquitted ones lack one?
These curves are round and so is mother earth
These thighs, soft velvet oceans
My self-love? As strong and versatile as Woman
And our curves? Human embodiments of art

These curves are round and so is mother earth
These thighs, soft velvet oceans

Stand up to the oppressor, ha. Good poem. Good job finding a way to abstractly representing your thoughts on this subject. You have talent. Good job.
