Regarding My Calories
Praise those numbers on the chart
weighing low made me reed trim -
dear calories I've come this far
oily food intake quelled my buldge.
Now,two thousand units of energy
means lettuce, celery servings a day,
and though anorexia is my mantra,
I'm calorifically grateful, but hamburger deprived.
