Everything In Between

My Friend, Tilly

I carry my Spare Tire with me when I bend down low.

Tilly’s become quite a nuisance, little does she know.

Sometimes I reach down and give her a little jiggle,

Out comes a sigh and then I just giggle.

I’ve stuffed and stuffed her inside of my clothes,

To hide her chunky face and all of her folds.

I struggle each day when I pull up my pants…

I’ve yet to decide what she does enhance?

My wardrobe just sits in my closet in tears,

As they hear me complaining while I look in the mirror..

I’m expectantly drinking shakes for my evening meal,

To bid TILLY “goodbye,” I say with a squeal.

I’m sorry old friend, it’s now time to go.

You belong on the jolly old man that chants HO HO HO!
