Summary
This poem talks about
hips, but just the narrator’s hips and not hips in general. The narrator
describes the size of her hips and the room needed for them to get around. The
narrator pokes fun at thinner hips calling the places those hips fit “petty”.
She also describes her hips as having a mind of their own, free to roam where
they please. The narrator clearly loves her assets and says that they can attract
men from time to time, and put men under a sort of spell or trance.

Response
Laugh, out, loud! Ha ha,
this was a funny poem! I loved it; it was short, sweet and simple. I liked how it had such a girl power attitude
to it. I also enjoyed how it encouraged women to love their bodies no matter
what. I also liked that it mentioned that having large assets, in this case
hips, can attract men so easily. I think it was also pretty cool how in the
mist of describing her hips the narrator mentions that they had “never been
enslaved” telling her readers of her decent. Really good poem! Also makes the
cut of one of my new favorites.
