Fascinate
Her goal every day
To bewitch
And to charm
Effortlessly she would float
As though she had wings

Eyes
Rolled twice
About face
FORWARD MARCH, now
We don’t tolerate
That TYPE of behavior
Young lady, you know better
Than to lick all the chocolate
From the raisin and peanut candies
And then put them back in the covered dish

Her
Mother
Always said
Fancy dresses
And the handsome guys
Were for the other girls
You know, the ATTRACTIVE ones
Not the HIDEOUSLY fat ones
These words just drove them further apart
After all, food didn’t care about looks

The older she got
OPINIONS meant less and less
She turned a deaf ear
Except to those who knew that
MONEY talks and bullshit walks

It took a moment
For the truth to DAWN on her
She was finally safe
She had not WASTED her time
She was just finding her strength
