Kara was
Propped
In front of
A camera
From the time
She was a baby
And then when
The money started
To come the agencies
Changed and she needed
To stay a certain way
She had a look
A look that
Was killing her as
Her body forced through
The change
She was getting wider
And taking up more space
She curled into herself to
Try to look smaller and
Held her chest in pain
All the sacrifices her
Parents made for her career
And
She was ruining it by
Growing hips and breasts
And
A wider jaw bone.
