does food ever feel heavy
like dead weight in your stomach
pulling you down
this is not poetry

no matter how small the portions are
even the fewest calories
or lack of nutritional value
this is not poetry

have you ever felt wrong
just for eating
unable to choke down bites
this is not poetry

have you ever wanted
to be thinner than your bones
to just evaporate
this is not poetry
