the form of femininity

I need no head
you care not what I think.
I need no hands or arms
with which
I might reach for an
open door.
I need no feet
that I would  
walk away from you.
I am the perfect form
of femininity
I meet your every need.

thanks so much.....it always amazes me, the ones I am unsure of are liked the most...I really found this one lacking, I knew I had a poem in my head to go with the pic, but I wasn't sure this was the right one...thanks again

Hey... at least you have something to offer. *G* That's more than I can say...

This poem would be powerful by itself... but the picture adds a searing visual. How cold life is when so much is possible and so little is needed. *S* Well done!

Hehe!
Great ...
I have no legs that I would walk away from you...
Love that line, something my exs would agree on:-)!

the form of femininity is not on the outside. . . I feel that's what you tried to show here. . .

I liked it. . .
