Chubby Mugs

A little wide in the rear,
With beliefs that eating anything...
Is endearing!
And to do this and feel entitled?

Clearly mentally and physically,
Handicapped...
Are these folks who do that.
Although those who choose,
To be politcally correct...
May become upset by others expressing,
Their direct assessments.
That seem harsh and openly stated,
With a degree of disrespect.

However,
The ones with their chubby mugs...
Are offensive to the eyes.
As well as to those who are health consciously wise.

If people are adding pounds their bodies don't need,
Who pays for this...
Ultimately?
You and me.
We have to step aside to have these FAT folks,
Accomodated unnecessarily!

And there are already enough excuses made,
To raise and pocket taxes!

A little wide in the rear,
With beliefs that eating anything...
Is something to be endeared?
And to do this and be entitled too?
At 'my' expense?
As if looking like a bloated float,
Is something to prove?
With a diminishing of what I value?
And that is my good sense...
I had to experience with my 'own' ignorance?

I simply do not think so!
Living waddling like this,
Is not the right way to go!
