fat

when we overeat and gain weight and do not buy larger clothing we sculpt ourselves with stored energy/overflowing the belts of our pants

if we do it quickly we decorate our flesh/with stretch marks and the subtle tattooing of burst capillaries

and if we continue such ill-advised behavior the stored energy becomes a vascular-wall encrustation that hampers plumbing, sometimes unto death

so we who cannot control our ingestation or do not metabolize our stored energy with exercise get tsktsked by our medical consultants who prescribe us symptom-handlers and not root-cause-managers

it is a hot fat mess

wellness concerns and fat-jiggling whilst looking into the bathroom mirror now tell me that rather than sleep another hour i really ought to gear up for the outside world and i here i am doing just that and hoping to be bursting out my front door before the top of the hour for some long slow distance

walk with me friend
