vous êtes belle

Women's enigmatic capability of discovering their own allurement had encouraged me to write about our perception from time to time, and I hope this poem can alter that. Written by Celine Arthur (2016).

vous êtes belle

She makes a moue as she looks down to her 36-24-36 quintessential self

The home to her intriguing soul, riveting mind

Espying mindfully her conspicuous white scars

She makes a moue as she catches sight of the distorted temple reflecting in the mirrors

Whining about how her ribcage won't show

And thighs won't touch

She makes a moue as she couldn't fathom her worth

The riches inside the treasure chest

She makes a moue as she yearns the rich taste of milk chocolate,

Turning a deaf ear to the growls in her tummy

She makes a moue as she covers herself in fine dark fabric

To hide this stout bashful lady

Her scowls are hidden beneath pale pink paint

Coal colored lines are traced on her movable fold of skin

She can barely breath in waft of air,

In her tightly fitted garment to hide her pot-belly

Prairie grass are grown out to cover the andesite's fractures that she's rueful of

She didn't make a moue as she notices the stars in her eyes

And the radiance of her skin

She didn't make a moue as her curves remind her of tulip petals

She didn't make a moue as the temple her soul is in,

Is the only temple she'll ever have

She didn't make a moue as she sees home,

When looking into the mirror

The home she wrecked down,

The home she has broken down in,

The home she sleeps in,

The home she lives in,

The home she was born in,

And the home she surely wont ever abandon

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
