Daughter of mine,
please cease to dine –
you must watch your diet
and be very quiet
For to be plump is no longer considered fair
economics dictates wealth=beauty=thinner than air
I’ll admonish you at the refrigerator
for I am your fat extinguisher
I dream of food
but have not chewed
anything for hours
this, the secret to my powers
Listen to me, my lean baby
can’t you see, I’m happy
follow my suit and you will be
as happy and as thin as me
My newly licensed 16 year old drove herself to Target to purchase cement glue for a poster project. They wouldn’t allow her to buy it because she has to be at least 18.
In Arizona, the minimum age to purchase a gun is also 18.
You know, because they are equally dangerous.
Here’s a shiny new bowl,
with crushed ice and filtered water
She snubs it – actually walks away –
and seeks water from the murky plant bowl
that captures rainwater,
soil and dead plant parts
daft dog!
Kismet
