#unknown size

PROGRESS at last!

Finally! After a discouraging month on the scale, at least I have an NSV to celebrate. These 'Next Goal' Jeans, whose size I do not know and really is meaningless anyway, can button! They actually FIT WORSE the last time I checked a couple of weeks ago, which was super disheartening, but finally, today, progress.

I am a woman of unknown size

-

and for some reason that gives you the right to criticize. You judge my hair, my height, my weight

You cast aspersions, fill your words with hate

you say I'm too fat to ever date.

-

I am a woman of unknown size.

-

I've small round tits, big hips, soft thighs

You think it's your place to remind me of mine

as though I cared, as though your shit was shined.

Call me livestock, call me damned... I hate to say it, but you're no man for

-

I am a woman of unknown size.

-

a sister, a daughter, a lover a friend,

I'm someone's beginning, I could be someone's end.

I'm more than what you see before you,

And with some grace I'll come to ignore you, but right now..

-

I am a woman of unknown size.

-

For some reason you think it's right to criticize,

To assess my health, my wealth, my joy--

a secret of hate couched on concern my confidence scares you--

You've nowhere to turn.

-

From a woman of unknown size.

-

but guess what dear, we're getting larger, bigger, fatter,

Healthier, stronger; our voices reach and stretch to the skies

No softness left just anger primed.

-

We are the women of unknown size.

-

So fuck your rules, and your regulations,

Your norms, your averages, your ministrations.

I don't want your approval no, Just take your hatefulness and go.

There is no place for you beside a powerful woman

-

of unknown size.
