inspired by prompt three
she is bragging about all the weight she has lost
I am stunned because she looks pretty corpulent
we are at a Fat Ladies of America meeting.
I lost six pounds this week she says.
There is polite clapping.
It is my first time here.
I want to be supportive
I whistle and hoot and clap and cheer.
“And I gained twelve pounds,” She continues.
So, this is how this game is played?
