Having thin wrists
Ever so feminine,
sharp as knives,
slim as a needle.
I eat and eat and eat
But no fat ever gets stuck
on my thin wrists.
They stay thin in defiance.
A boy asked another boy
If he could break my thin wrists
He looks at it rationally-coldly.
It would just take a snap.
But my wrists made of bones
Composed of calcium,
Same component
As that boy’s wrist
To think, to phantom, to assume,
it would break so easily.
Takes my breath away
as I look at my thin wrists.

just some childhood memory I think back and wonder about it in my adult perspective
