dieting is not for me

exercise used to be my life
after a while it gave me strife
forty pounds later I am happier
if you bring sugar, make sure it’s pure

I don’t like those fake sugars at all
don’t care if I get as thick as I am tall
dieting is not something that I like to do
do not care if I reach size twenty-two
