Miss Wideload (contains a bit of swearing)

[Princess Rachel]

Yeah you ->-bleeped-<-inging laugh when I walk by
I amuse you with my so-called life
You feel the need to point and stare
Showing off your ignorance to the world

Yeah I've got a fat arse and a belly too
I'd rather slash my arms that forgo a meal
The pain's less and I can feel full inside
There's more of me than there is of you

Yeah you scoff and mock me out of fear
You won't make me change my course
This road is mine to walk and I love it
Though it takes ages to get some places

Yeah you can spout venom and hate
Saying how you want to kill me and others
You just parade your stupidity anew
While everyone else evolves past you

Yeah you can live your life my way
But you'll never stop me living my way
I'm never slowing down, or giving in
Call me Miss Wideload it's a compliment

Great poetry.

Thank you for that poem. I laughed - and cheered!

Child of two morbidly obese parents, father died of diabetes complications, four bariatric surgeries in the immediate family. "Wideload" was a term of endearance between my siblings. People can be so stupid when they see others suffering challenges that are visible to the naked eye. Obesity, disability, gender nonconformance, age... these trigger the same moronic hatred as race and sex but society at least pays lip service to not tolerating overt racism and sexism.

Walk on, sister! Walk on!
