Dhramn Diet Pill Did Not Work
Dhramn Diet Pill
I took a pink diet pill.
The blue ones had stopped working.
And I stopped drinking all that stupid water.
I do not have time to go to the bathroom hourly.
Thought about it and realized I probably needed two diet pills.
Shook out another pink, and downed it happily.
Turned to see crackers and peanut butter.
A little taste would not hurt. Made them into sandwiches.
My husband had brought home my favorite coconut cake.
I stomped out of the kitchen, irritated.
Slunk back five minutes later and cut the cake into sixty-four pieces.
They were so small, I ate thirty-two of them.
Dhramn diet pill did not work.
