Poem Artwork

... knew better than to open the bag:  no.
Actually, shouldn't have bought them at
all, these, my undoing.  Tempted to eat
one, but we both know it can't be done:
they say you can't eat just one.  T r u t h!
One begat two begat three which begat
more and more:  ate over half.  Cannot
blame the chips:  it was my hand feeding
them to eager mouth saying, 'Yes, O yes!'
when it should have been saying, 'No, no,
a thousand times, no!'  NO wonder I'm fat
---- Father, forgive me, for I have sinned:
it's been far too damn long since my last
confession:  you can see it on my hips ....

OH yeah, probs with food. Especially chips. Call them 'No-No's.' LOL!

As for the picture: yes, taken at Burleson High School's locker room. We were taking part in a disaster drill; simulating two tornadoes hitting the school. It was 105 degrees out that day: HOT! But we (Karen and I) were lucky: we were victims inside, while others were victims OUTside. Air conditioned comfort! LOL

Thanks to all who've read my silly words, and especially to those who commented. =] Love you all!
