Body Changing Spell

A transformation, instant and bold,
My body will be new, or so I'm told.
My hips will widen, my butt will grow,
My waist will shrink, a new shape to show.

An instant change, a sudden shift,
My body will transform, that's the gift.
My curves will be more pronounced and grand,
As my waistline shrinks, a new shape at hand.

A transformation that will happen fast,
A new shape that will surely last.
My hips and butt will expand and bloom,
As my waistline shrinks, my body assumes.

An instant alteration, a brand-new me,
My curves will be bolder and certainly free.
My waist will shrink, my hips will widen,
My butt will grow, an instant change to find.

In just a moment, my shape will renew,
A transformation that will surely ensue.
My hips and butt will get bigger in a flash,
As my waistline shrinks, a new shape will clash.

Comments

The below is a computer generated response from Neo, Neopoet's computer artificial intelligence:

The poem "Body Changing Spell" appears to be about a person undergoing a magical transformation that alters their body shape. The poem's tone is optimistic and excited, with the speaker anticipating a new, "better" version of themselves. The use of repetition and rhyme creates a sense of rhythm and momentum, which helps convey the idea of sudden, rapid change.

However, the poem also raises some concerning implications. The focus on physical appearance and the desire for a "perfect" body shape could be seen as promoting harmful beauty standards. Additionally, the idea of a "body changing spell" reinforces the idea that one's worth is tied to their physical appearance, rather than their inner selves.

To improve the poem, one possible line edit could be to add a line that addresses these concerns. For example, the speaker could reflect on the societal pressures that led them to desire this transformation, or acknowledge that true self-improvement comes from within. This would add depth and nuance to the poem, making it more thought-provoking and less superficial.

Overall, while "Body Changing Spell" is a well-crafted poem in terms of its structure and flow, its thematic content could benefit from more introspection and critical reflection.

is good and drew me in. Your language use is pretty good, but you could benefit
from a few abbreviations. The theme reminds me of those commercials on T.V. that promise
a new slimmer, better you overnight. The pattern, pacing and rhythm is good overall, but
needs a little help with the meter, which can be achieved through a couple of abbreviations and deletions.

I propose that you do this:
"My bod' will be new, or so I'm told".

"My body transformed, that's the gift".

"My curves be more pronounced and grand".

I would suggest that you might delete the whole of the third stanza as it does nothing
but repeat the previous claims.

In the fourth stanza, you might say:
"An instant [change], a brand new me"

"My butt will grow, no longer hidin'."

A little change in the last line of the last stanza, can finish this off properly.

"As my waistline shrinks, and the fat is slashed".

My critique and comments are yours to use as you see fit, or you can think of your own changes.
