Eyelids heavy. I listen to the droning, drowning voices of my classmates. They add their opinions. The professor nods. And I start to pass out. Then I think of you � less than three minutes away from me where you hide and avoid talking to me. I close my eyes and nod my head to the rhythm of the poetry being read aloud by miserably untalented readers. Then I think of you � less than three minutes away from me where you hide. Where I leave you to your hiding.

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.
