Cake or Bust

There was a girl named Trina
She was a Pearl thin ballerina 
Then she ate
Chocolate cake 
Her thighs are no longer leaner

She tried wearing elastic tights - But couldn’t bend her legs that night - In anger and rage - She ran off the stage - And consoled herself with candy in spite… Beryl
