A poem on public fat-shaming and the constant trolling of celebrities over their looks.

So you called me fat, come sit
Let's have a chat,
Now talk to me face to face
If we're a pack of cards, I'm the ace,
Was being beautiful
Ever about losing weight,
If not then why are you
Spreading so much hate?

Hey, let me get this straight,
Commenting on someone isn't appropriate
Try stepping into my shoes,
I'm a lioness at it
Will you even be a kangaroo?
Have times changed or is it the same,
Do you comment for attention and fame,
Don't do it dude it's seriously lame
This is to all the people who body shame.
