The Post Lunch Killer

The break between lunch and dinner,
Puts my head and tummy on a spinner,

Eat, eat, eat, seduces my now tiny tum,
It's going to be yum, yum, yum,

She croons, 
Like a saucy little goon,

For she knows the key to my heart,
Is through art,

Not the inedible kind,
The one that makes my teeth grind,

This love-hate relationship with food,
Sometimes makes me brood,

On most days I rein in my tum,
But the killer gap between lunch and dinner, makes her hum,

This fight i must win,
Every single day, so that my chin,

Stays as one,
And not as a shapeless, gooey bun,

I will not go back to being a little ball,
And for that I'll put up every single wall,

Shoo and scram little tum,
Let's stay little and not listen to your crazy, crazy hum.
