Looped around the waist
Crossing her chest and stomach
Flattening her stomach
Creating beauty in the eyes of others
Creating an hour-glass figure
A beautiful figure.
Squeezing
The ribs
Tightening
The stomach
Contracting
The organs
Reducing her
To nothing
Thinning her
To nothing
As she breathes
In
And out
In
And out
Struggling to breathe
Can’t
Can’t breathe
Suffocating
To be beautiful
Struggling for air
Making her beautiful

Beautiful to look at
Beautiful to stare at
Strangling for beauty
Striving for beauty
Beauty for others
Beauty in other people’s eyes
Beautiful girl
Strangled girl
Sick girl
But beautiful
Always beautiful
