The Fat Man Poem by Jim Meyerholtz

The Fat Man



Fatman
no one loves you when your fat
they look at you like some kind of rat

The laughs and sneers
we weren't suppose to here

Hear we do, we want it to stop
It cuts to the hart

When your fat your use to pain
when your fat its hard to keep sane

Even if they love you it not you
its what you could turn to

If you lose the weight shed the pounds
only than can love be found

and if your loveone is thinner
youll never be the winner

The Fat man is there to push and shove
the fat man it always the first one snubbed

The fat man listens to our every word
God knows he'd like to be heard

no one to hear him no one to care
at times ashamed he is there

He hears, he sees, he cryes
A part wishes to die

the fat man is the man the public love to hate.... but he must learn to love himself first. i know lots of fat people who are confident in themselves, with people who truly adore them for what they are.... people. lovely people. trouble is, some shallow people don't see behind the figure / body. the media has a lot to answer to, as well. they show thin people (often horribly unhealthy) as the way to go. IT'S NOT! ! ! ! ! .. .. rachael x
