Death Before Diet

A Poem by Michelle Gent

Comical anti diet campaign

Death Before Diet-

I don't want to diet
I want to fry it, egg it, batter it
Have it with cheese sauce
Eat it with a biscuit

I want to ala mode it
Slide down a marshmallow slide with it
I don't want a snow cone, you keep it
Nor do I want a rice cake
unless you wrap meat around it

I know this diet wont keep me fit
But I'll die with a smile on my face
Sliding into the casket with a brisket
In my pocket and Italian bread under my arm

You die your nice, calm, boring food death
With perfect body and skin
I'll die dancing on table tops
Eating snickers bars and parfait's smoking a cigarette.
