Enemy - 8/20/03
Food is my enemy,
I have always thought.
The bulge between my
legs and breasts.
Reminds me of a
swimming pool intertube.
History of anorexia
in the past.
You would not
be able to tell that now.
I’m overweight,
can’t you tell?
I can’t stop eating.
Don’t eat, don’t eat,
I continue to eat.
The only thing that
keeps me from eating
is sleeping.
It’s bad enough that
my mother is skinnier than me.
Jill, don’t get above
150.
Jill, I don’t want you
to be a plus size.
She says...
I’m not happy with my self,
so I eat.
The eating doesnt make
me feel good though.
I cant control it.
I cant stop it.
I don’t exercise.
No willpower.
Don’t want anyone
to see my intertube.
Maybe I’m lazy,
maybe there’s no hope
