The sun that pours through Jane's window
is her only companion
The dust particles that float & bob
in its stream
invite her to join the swim
She just sighs, avoiding breath
and the weight of her fear drops her
into an overstuffed chair
Swallowed alive she struggles for air
as the tv which never dies
spits out 'Imitation of Life'

This is haunting and so sad.
I wonder myself about this life
at times, but tomorrow's always
another chance.

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
