I'm not some meat
that you can grade
It's not 'your cut'
I'm sad I have not made
If you looked with your eyes
past grades "A," "B," or "C"
you'd see I'm not a number
There's so much more to me
I have a heart and a brain
Beyond this transient skin
So I should not be graded
based on 'ugly,' 'fat,' or 'thin'
I'm not a Roman goddess
So I hope you get the jist--
I'm a breathing human being
Not a number on a list.
