If that diet you heed doesn’t show
some reduction in girth down below,
I’d suggest you cut back
on that twice daily snack.
Take one bite and the other part throw.

When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy



Kindness is a seed sown by the gentlest hand, growing care's flowers.

If you throw up beyond the first bite
then the diet you chose ain't so bright
Perhaps dietician
could help your condition
so you don't eat all that's in sight!

When you eat everything that’s in sight
your omnivorous ways are your plight
for what’s now in your gut
will soon exit your butt
and you’ll sleep on the toilet each night.

If you fall fast asleep in the loo
all your dreamin' will turn into poo
Wipe your rear and begone
and be sure that you don
all your clothes, whether old, worn or new

When you’re putting on clothes, new or old
to stay warm when it’s icy and cold;
as the layers increase
some may think you’re obese
but you’ve suffered no harm, you just rolled.

If you're suffering harm from the mold
you had best come inside from the cold
You can bathe in the loo
while avoiding the poo
and you will not be flushed, truth be told
