A short poem about society's obsession with weight
An unnatural obsession with weight
leads one to be irate
and depressed...
stuck in the mess
of an ever-shrinking
ever-growing
unhealthy state of being

It is much better is it to be content
to live a life moderate
than it is to worry and fret too much
over weight and other such
things.

Though it be important to exercise and watch
what one eats, it is also important to not
let stressing over weight control the only
life that one has.
