homework w/e 8/9

Post by Neville Briggs » Thu Aug 28, 2014 5:37 pm

DOWNSIZING

I'll give it to you straight !
alarm that I can't overstate;
the doc forecasts a dire fate,
unless I lose some weight.

They'll nail me in a crate
and I'll be known hence as "the late "
I will have passed my use by date
unless I lose some weight.

But when I contemplate
the agony to change my state
and make my corpulence abate;
I just can't lose that weight.

Please ! someone demonstrate
a painless way to orchestrate
reversing my expansion rate.
I might be off to Heaven's Gate
unless I lose some weight.

The diet of Princess Kate?
or some low fat burly bait.
Maybe use a smaller plate?
or your size could indicate
instead of overweight
it's air so just deflate?
Or it might neccessitate
your taste buds destimulate,
so you could contemplate
a stomach stapling, mate ;)

Nice poem fatty :P
