Compliments Of The Beach


Fat ladies on the beach wear thongs

What's wrong with that

Did they run out of tent again

Beach balls come in multicolored blue

To get confused with obesity

Small round women swimming

Who wear spandex suits to force the tides high

Roll the waves back from where they came

From Florida to England when they dive

Signs read, Fat chicks cause tidal waves

Enter at your own risk if you aren't a fish

When a woman asks if she is fat

Never answer that

Divert her attention to the sea and say

You are not large my dear

The ocean is simply too small for its size

This time of year
