Phenomenal woman
The poet does not paint an exact picture of her body, but she does tell us what it's not............
I’m not cute or built to suit a fashion model’s size
From this, and what the poet does tell us, we can infer that she is a large woman, with wide hips, a generous bosom, and a distinct waistline.
