I am fat (in your mind)
My belly is not taut
like your girlfriend’s
My arms not mere skin and bone.
My breasts are ample and full
my thighs strong and sturdy.
I am fat (because of men like you)
But I am a beautiful mind
that you will never truly grow to know
Your chances of that have been
cancelled
by a thoughtless
hurtful
comment
made while drunk.

Your loss.
