FAT
By Ross E F Lombardi
.
Some people are fat,
Because they hate themselves.
.
Some people are thin,
Because they hate themselves.
.
Some people take drink and drugs,
Because they hate themselves.
.
Some people live a life of discipline and
self-denial.
Because they hate themselves.
.
Some people are cruel to others.
Because they hate themselves.
.
Some people put up with too much of other
people's shit,
Because they hate themselves.
.
Some people chase some form of success,
Because they hate themselves,
And have something to prove.
.
Some people give up.
Because they hate themselves.
And feel there is nothing more they can do.
.
Far too many people make excuses,
Pretend and deny that they do not hate themselves.
When in fact they do.
.
Far too many people admit the fact.
And do all the usual self-destructive crap,
That far too many of us do.
.
But good or bad.
Right or wrong.
Self-aware or deluded.
.
No one seems to like themselves at all!
AND yet...
.
NO one is asking the real question!
Why in a world that is already hard enough,
Do so many of us hate ourselves?
And Not some usual tired trite trope excuse! -
- The type we all use!
I mean the REAL reason.
.
Why in a harsh world?
That is already more than hard enough?
Do as many people hate themselves?
As much as they do?
