Love Life.

Love Life

Some people say I’m fat

But I don’t call it that.

I call myself oblong

Or maybe perpendicular.

I don’t know what else to call

Myself because my mother

Named me.

She did so, I’m not lyin,’

It was about thirty-eight years ago,

When she was layin’ in that hospital

Room, lookin’ at them purple curtains

And thinkin’ of a name for me.

I don’t think I’m fat.

It’s just who I am.

I love my food.

I love my life.

It’s just who I am.
