I dream of being a skeleton
tracing out each rib with my fingers
holding my thigh between my thumb and forefinger
to study the human bone structure by looking in the mirror
I dream of the day my waist size is too small for a size 00
when my hip bones can balance trays on them
when the salewomen tell me all of the clothes here are too big for me
when I am full after half a salad
I dream of the day I look in the mirror and am confident I won't be called fat
To the boys who call me fat
