Of Size/ Sign Off
If you read any of my poems
Or listen to any of my shows
And your takeaway is
“This fat person is an idiot—
Stop trying to make me feel bad for you
Thin privilege doesn’t exist
People call me fat and skinny all the time
Stop taking things so personally—
You don’t have the right to be
Mad about it”
I find this takeaway
Astonishing
I literally
Talk about
What actually happens to me
Under a pseudonym
With a limited veil of
Anonymity
I literally
Don’t exist !!!
I am a figure
Of my own imagination !!!!
Who is triggered…?
Who is in denial?
Who is making
Who
Feel bad
For who ?
Am I supposed to feel bad
For the thin perspectives
Who are being made aware
Of their body privilege?
Am I supposed to listen
To “allies”
Who fight for
Races that they aren’t —
Genders they aren’t —
Nationalities they aren’t—
Sexualities they aren’t—
But god forbid
Any reckless idiot
Stupid enough to be accepting
Of bodies of sizes
They aren’t.
Just fucking
Sign off
You hypocrite liberal
Virtue signal warrior
