Skin

From rake thin runt
To sumo wrestler
Overnight
Thank you puberty
For the perspective
For the pendulous
Breasts so heavy
And for the big
Beautiful belly
From sickly and skinny
To hefty and healthy
In a few short months
Thank you
Country air
For the strength
For the fearsome
Shoulders so broad
And for the sculpted
Strong legs
That carry me
And my victories
My story is my skin
My skin is my salvation
My salvation is my body
My body is my nirvana
