The Shameless Hussies: read the novel online

In Praise of Thongs – Liz Jackson

Dear Vanessa
What’s this I hear
You are poo poohing
what I hold dear

(sexy little numbers)

I've been to the gym
and  run miles, so that
I can wear thongs
and not look fat

(I worked really hard)

but now you say
they are out of fashion
and other wares
are now the passion

(passion killer more like)

I'm sorry girl
don’t get me wrong
I ran my ass off
to wear this thong

(literally, much smaller butt now)

Vanessa, dear
do not rant
I just refuse
to wear big pants

(no way I am going back)

Vanessa too,
I'm at a loss
to know why you
call thongs ..butt floss!
