I stare at myself in awe.
What a creation.
Behold.
She lives.

A body like the media promotes.
Smooth skin of a dark tone.
She fights with both hands
Fists clenched with intensity
To keep the insecurities at bay.

Though they climb through her brain
Chemically reducing her
To nothing but a stereotype.
