Because they can

No greater self-love
than a dog licking itself
with satisfaction.

VH1 shows

It’s the guilty splurge,
potato chips for the mind.
You can’t watch just one.

Weight watchers

On weigh-in day I’d
inhale helium if it
would make me lighter.

Unproductive

Inertia roosting
inside me like a hen un-
willing to lay eggs.

Feeling fat

Going to New York
to be on TV. Need new
clothes. A tent would work.
