Don’t call me pretty,
Don’t you dare say ‘beautiful.’
I wasn’t put here
To please your eye.
Don’t call me gorgeous,
Don’t say he’s handsome.
The symmetry of our faces
Are totally irrelevant.
You know better than ‘fat,’
But don’t call her ‘skinny’ either.
Thank you,
Our bodies are none of your business!
Don’t call me pretty,
When witty, clever,
empowered, independent
Will do so much more.
Don’t limit us to our faces
Or the size of our waists.
We are here to change the world
Not match your aesthetics
