B is for…

B is for boobies;

for free the nipple activists

and

breastfeeding in public

and

YesAllWomen

and

having a flat chest until you’re

21

or having double Ds

at the age of 11.

Blooming

late or

blooming early

Or blooming small and beautiful and bright.

boys snapping bra straps

and girls being embarrassed

to shake or show or

glow what their mamas gave em.

B is for boobies,

Because the word “breast”

Reminds me of cancer

And

awkward anatomy classes

And chicken cutlets at dinner time.

B is for boobies,

For lacey bras

And sexy bandeaus

And taking them off the second you walk through your door

At the end of a long day,

Feeling free,

And feeling more like yourself than you have

Since the night before

When you slept butt ass naked.

Wild

Sexy

Beautiful

Free.
