im not blonde with blue eyes
not skinny with endless legs
no butt, long stomach, or hair blowing in the wind
sparkling smile or soft white skin
i am burnt from the sun like a crisp golden beach
with eyes that are only green when they’re red
my hair changes color with styles, moods, and summers
my teeth rarely show unless its to growl
my short legs are fast and can climb high fruit trees
my strangle-kelp hair can break any brush
my tummy’s not flat but can eat opihi, ice cream and Tabasco sauce at once
i may not be tall but i can dive head first from cliffs and through an 8ft set
a makeup less face the same at sunrise and sunset
ratty old clothes not afraid to get wet
flat bare feet over hot sharp rocks
green bottles good times and upside down socks
(cause i don’t know the difference.)
know that when you get a local girl
she may not look like the models on tv
but she just maybe
something better.
