( I will never forget watching the finals of the Miss F.A.T. (Fabulous And Thick ) beauty contest in 2006 on television. I am so glad that I bore witness to Tanisha Malone getting crowned. I wrote this poem and sent it to Tanisha Malones fanclub website the very next day after she was crowned. They did in fact post this poem on her fanclub website. )

Their twinkle is the smile of appreciation for
being able to play a role in your reign.
Stay supreme
