She says she doesn't have long enough hair

as though the length of it diminishes its softness 

 

She thinks her curves are in the wrong places

too much there,  not enough here

 

From where I sit all of the proportions are perfect

one hip jutted out at a sharp angle and

not long enough bangs covering her eyes

 

I tell her she doesn't have too much of anything and

just enough of everything 

 

She shakes her head,  dissenting

but not too much
