Little Red Riding Hood Wants To Be Skinny Too

I was jogging down a wooden trail, Hoping to lose the extra holiday fat When I saw my favorite little girl, Sporting her fabled red cape and hat Hoping to surprise her I snuck up quiet & fast, But what I saw caused me to gasp Little Red had vomit running down the front of her shirt And grandma’s goodies were splattered all over the dirt “It’s not what it looks like!” She said, Desperation lacing her voice “You should have seen how much I ate, I didn’t have a choice Grandma wasn’t home, And I felt bad letting the goodies go to waste So I took a nibble but couldn’t resist the taste So I ate, and ate, and ate, and ate, until my stomach was filled With not only food but self hate I tried to stay calm, But I could hardly breath I tried to suck in, But the voices wouldn’t leave” ‘You little whore, come on piggy, do you want some more? Your thighs are as wide as the wicked witch’s ass You will NEVER get the prince, because that slipper’s made of glass Puke, it’s the only way to fix your mistake It’s not perfect, but there’s no such thing as a retake’ Little Red smiled her gruesome grin And skipped down the path, On a quest to be thin Red cape flapping in the wind, Smeared by puke I guess even 11 year old's are Obsessed with how they look
