My ribcage protrudes out from under pale skin Decorated with dozens of dark moles. My ex used to call me a Spinosaurus Because each individual vertebra is So prominent under my thin skin as I bend over I look like that one dinosaur. My papery skin is too delicate to protect myself from remarks like that. Too fragile to cover up the bones that hold me together. I don’t think they’re doing a very good job, It feels like I’m falling apart. Mocha polka dots are scattered about the creamy Organ that encloses the even grosser organs. I guess even if my skin is thin at least I have that. People always say I look like I’m skin and bones As if it’s a bad thing. At least I have skin to Cover up the bones, and I don’t have rolls Of fat begging to burst out of this Thin layering of tissue barely holding What little I am made of together. I might be 100 pounds but I have cellulite and stretch marks too. What makes me so different from you?
