A Poem to Society

The Truth, Whether We Like It or Not

tall and skinny,

sporty and tan,

that's what you think of when I say

society's acceptable woman or man.

flat stomach and abs,

an impossible goal,

it's what's said to be rad

but nobody knows.

plastic surgery and makeup

is what covers the face,

covers the face,

of our imperfect race.

but society isn't right,

that much is true,

you're beautiful,

when you're one-hundred percent you.
