I rather be 'fat'

than skinny and on the verge

I was going through some old poems saved on my computer and I noticed a folder called "Based On..." where I found some poetry I wrote based on musicals and episodes. I will posting a few of these throughout the course of the week for all of you to enjoy.

Smallville: Cravings (S1E7) Jodi Melville, a character who struggles with her body image

This poem is based on Smallville's S1E7 Cravings.
