SEE THE THING IS, he said, BIG GIRLS LEAVE MORE SPACE FOR ME TO GRAB AHOLD OF but i’m not your handlebars SEE THE THING IS, she said, BIG GIRLS ARE BETTER THAN SKINNY ONES BECAUSE MEN DON’T LIKE BONES but other girls are not graveyards SEE THE THING IS a baby girl isn’t beautiful because somebody is gonna hold her i mean we all wanna be loved but i want her to love herself first a baby girl isn’t beautiful because a man’s fingertips can dig bruises into her hips, she’s beautiful because she just is in nature we don’t say a flower is beautiful when somebody wants to pick it in fact we say that nature’s beauty is at the height of purity when it would destroy you to even touch it SEE THE THING IS i would rather be an ocean of danger and deep black and thick mermaid thighs rather than a body you want to cruise across i would rather be the night sky and crush ribs with a suffocating sense that we are all small and purposeless rather than a landscape of freckles someone happens to think are akin to constellations i would rather be storms and lightning and a bright sun rising, i would rather make you quake in your boots than get your heart pounding, i would rather be beautiful like a cold spring stream: not beautiful because you said so but beautiful because i am me.
