Weight
by Joan SerratelliHe tells me
when to eat,
what to eat
and how much
to eat.
I could understand this
if I was overweight,
but I weigh 95 lbs
(after eating)
He tells me
not to eat ice cream
cake is a "no-no"
Why have I not
eaten the chocolate
ice cream?
Why did I eat
an entire cake
in 4 days?
....BECAUSE
I WEIGH 93 LBS! 03/24/2010 Author's Note: You tell me?

Ben Franklin once noted that, "since the improvment of cookery, people eat twice as much as nature require." Guess you are an exception, but I hope you will strive to put a bit more so-called meat on your bones! Again, you are straight forward here in your communication. Thanks. Now, go eat a dozen bags of fries! |
