everyone keeps telling me
i'm getting fat. . .
the people who would ask me
why I didn't eat when I was younger
are now trying to find ways to
block my hunger.
'I swear you have a worm in your stomach.'
it drives me crazy,
forget working out...i'm too lazy.
i'm not even fat,
I wear a size 0 in dresses,
extra small t-shirts
26 or 28 in jeans,
it's not my fault God blessed me
with a culo mami it's in
my genes.
so please don't complain to me
about gaining a pound or three. . .
maybe I should just become
bulimic or anorexic,
that way everyone would
stop pressing me on why I
eat a little more than 3 meals
a day.
