This poem describes a woman who believes in herself, whether plumb or slim, she knows her best features and knows how to use her feminine wiles to bring out these features.The rhymes are great too.Good poem and big up 2 maya

Yikes, images of a real femme fatale here. But there's something quite ironic, about a woman who describes herself as different from all the models, but then when asked why she is special lists only things in her appearance. Its interesting and well written however, so I'd give it a 9

This reminds me of the protangonist Charley Citrine in Saul Bellow's 'Humbolt's Gift' enjoying the lovely ladyness of his female companion Renata as she walks in front of him on the boardwalk in Atlantic City.

Phenomenal piece. Thoroughly refreshing, thought-provoking. Its utterly phenomenal. It makes of proud to be a woman.
