Overweight
Please, continue with your exercise
To sensibly check your goddamned size
And profitably win A Painless Prize:
For The Sport Body Ounce must not rise;
For contests a loss The Bone dries
And no blunders in the end seem wise…
Please, continue to watch overweight
That could make Coveted Prizes wait
And Expected Honors arrive late
And you leave in melancholic state…
In Boxing make you A Punching Bag,
Fellow The Rival to along drag;
Blows keep landing on, until you sag
And the floor wipe with: A Piteous Rag!
Please, Exercises, not Slimming Pills
Yes, Exercises with Honest Thrills!
