Full Coverage: A Savvy Poem

Cover me up, he says

Nothing short, nothing cropped, and nothing tight.

Wanting to please, and wanting to cover up, to reserve myself – just for him,

I buy it big and wear it baggy.

Hold it in, he says.

I told you, didn’t I? I told you not to show; to show – nothing.

See the men – see them looking.

See them looking up the gap, see them seeing your boobs, up the gap of your bagginess.

I see. I see the men all bent up – all bent up and looking up. All looking up the gap of my

own bagginess.

All admiring my beauty.

Being about as beautiful as a bag lady can be, I bag him up and sling him.
