Five Pounds
Yussra MT Ebrahim
2/8/2014

gorged girl
stuffed to the brim
eating more
on a whim
if fat makes you float
then I guess I’ll swim
through my river of syrup

gorgeous girls
don’t eat nachos
leave the cheese
to the mister machos

my syrup’s getting bitter
my queso has gone bad
the far side of this river
is a waterfall of mad

perhaps a cup would be better
than a river as such
I can have what I want
if I stop wanting so much

food poisoning
and intense guilt
can hardly fit
in this boat I’ve built

this digestive system
is missing a code
I eat and I eat
without overload

I’m trying to reverse my body’s
preprogrammed commands
to close my mouth for a moment
and put down my hands
I’m trying to limit
I’m praying I can
when you’re actually hungry
food stops tasting bland
