One Cup Full.. I am Still Me

This is in response to a news article I read in one of my groups. Titled: Man With One Leg Sues Store for Making him Buy a Pair of Shoes.' Well, if all things are created equal I should be able to sue the likes of Victira Secret and Lily of France, and any other company selling bras. Right? Why spend money on a bra with two cups when I need only one, the right one is no longer there.
I hope this man loses this frivolous lawsuit and get sued for stupidity. My advice to this poor bloke...search the internet for someone missing the foot he doesn't need and they could make shoe shopping a joint venture. Listen people, we have to get creative and make most of these terrible situations that we unwittingly find ourselves in sometimes... Folks never cease to amaze me. I have grounds for a lawsuit, wouldn't you all agree? ROTFL....


 

I am one breasted Pamela from Brooklyn, New York

And I think you and I should have a little talk.

Girls, you know that I have just one breast.

So why pay fifty dollars for a bra when I have one cup less?

Bras for one breasted women costs a whole lot more.

Perhaps, I should sue Victoria Secret so I’ll be no longer poor.

They need to design a bra for me with only one cup.

But they gave me two and I have to fill the next one up

with a prosthesis to balance it and make it look good.

I am not ashamed of this body, you  know, I never could.

I’m still so very sexy, as sexy as I want to be.

And if you don’t believe me check out PlayBoy; you’ll see.

My naked picture is right there in the center page.

Some folks are turned off and some are in a rage.

Some folks seem confused; I think they wanna lynch me,

Folks are screaming and saying the fire is where my photo should be.

They say it’s gross and offensive for me to pose in the nude.

They say what I did in PlayBoy was both immoral and rude.

How could I show my naked body when one breast is gone?

Folks think I should be shy, embarrassed, and forlorn

But I am not; the fact is, I am very proud of me.

This is not something I planned; it’s just my new reality.

I’m intelligent, I’m self-confident, and I’m still pretty.

Cancer is in remission and that means I am cancer free.

If folks can’t look at my naked body then it’s their shame

I’m not participating: I have no intentions of playing that game

I am proud of my body; I am so proud of me

I am one- breasted Pam… ultra-feminine and sexy.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! You have a truth in you that you live by. Few can say that.

Glad to hear someone is not listening to the world of illusion. Great write with a fantastic message!
