ILLUSION
Will you believe me,
if I said that
bodies are bodies?
The hypocrites aka us
Body positivity
Shame on you, me and all of those who agree
What a pretty image it will be
A disregard of a reality
Where size does matters
Even if we claim the other
How innocent do
we think we are?
A functional society
Is never honest
Two fingers down the throat
I heard
Proportions are important
I was told
Pretty clothes are pretty
on pretty people
Distorted thoughts
are perfectly normal in distorted minds
Is your body really yours?
Or does it belong to everyone else?
Take ownership of your words
Do measurements really not matter?
The f***ing lies
God damn
It's not a 'pretty' image
without proportions
tell it to my face that you don’t have to look a certain way! body positivity!
know what you look like and LOVE it!
don’t contribute to the noise pollution
don’t tell me that fashion can be anyone’s game
because its f***ing not
My body really isn’t mine
and your body probably isn’t either
But we’re playing the game
Bodies
Your body
My body
Their body
A claim on our dignity
A lack of integrity
“Take back what is yours”
The body may be theirs to keep
But the soul is mine to cherish
