hurricane day

So now I have like 5 friends 

Who have decided to 

Get it together forever. 

I dreamed I saw a woman

Who was pretty heavy. 

I got closer -

And I realized 

She was me! 

This was 8 years ago. 

There’s only like 10 pounds 

Between a medium and a large for me.  

But since I’m short, it shows up fast. 

Elaine calls these “Pig Nachos.”

Pork Rinds and Melted Cheese. 

I had this with canned Chili. 

Master of the house

Doling out the charm 

Life with cats. 

So here’s my plan. 

Since every food I love

Now hates me, 

I have to cut them out. 

The heartburn is not worth it. 

The relux.  And gain. 

I feel great on the herbs. 

So that will continue. 

I’ll dry fast when I can 

But that’s my mainstay 

Of my plan. 

It’s good to fast like a week per year 

Or a weekend per. month 

Or one week per day. 

Fasting can heal. 

But if you’re not prepared,

It’s a strain. 

So it’s going to rain. 

A hurricane is in Houston now. 

Coming this way. 

So I don’t have to water.
