Struggling with body issues and saying "fuck you" to beauty standards.
{ inspired by "Bather with Cigarette" by Yasuo Kuniyoshi }
lyrics
I am not your Venus.
I am no slender sliver
of petal pink flesh
shucked and served
On the half shell
For you to devour
I am a thicc thighed goddess
These rolls you’d rather I hide
Churn and curve
Like the ocean tide
My stretch marks and spider veins
you so despise
Bloom across my dimpled skin
Like ribbons of seaweed
Even though you cast me aside
I rise
Thick like smoke,
rock and salt
A primal perfume that stings your eyes
And makes you choke
You balk at the meeting of my thighs
But my chub rub is merely the shifting of tectonic plates
that creates
new continents.
