Danita Michelle Allen Poet Prose Poetry

Don'T Call Me Fat

You may see me,
but you don't really SEE me.
And, you might guess,
about what that last statement implies.,
assuming that you know me,
by the size of my thighs,
by the dimples in my butt,
and my all too frequent
chocolate highs.
But, you don't and can't know me.
You see, I've got an agenda,
that you'll never recognize,
a personality..., that's been known
to mesmerize.
a smile..., that will sometimes tantalize...,
And, IF I give you the time of day, 
you'll know that you've won a prize.
So, DON'T call me FAT!
And, DON'T call me CHUNKY!,
BIG-BONED!, or THICK!  
That may work for some
but, NOT for this chick!
Not for this lady, this diva, 
this QUEEN!
And, if you're short on understanding,
I can tell you what I mean.
You can call me...
Extra Curvy..., but NOT FAT,
Thickalicious..., but NOT FAT,
Overly Luscious..., but NOT FAT,
Over Flowing with Goodness...,
but NOT FAT!
Your thoughts should be
crystal clear,
since I broke it down like that...
