I couldn’t manage to get this into 100 words plus the prompt this week. I’ve gone 13 words over – sorry!
This week’s prompt was the words of Victor Meldrew ‘I don’t believe it!’
You’re telling me you checked my blood
And found something concerning?
You think I need to lose some weight
In diet be discerning?
You talk to me in acronyms
Of ‘LDL’ and neuts
And tell me arteries are furred
You’re too big for your boots!
I don’t believe it when you say
If I don’t change you think
My heart will fail, I’ll have a stroke
Or die from too much drink
I love my food and glass or two
My butter thickly spread
I don’t believe it when you say
I’m eating too much bread
And as for exercise – you jest!
Go running? Bah…mistake!
I’ve heard enough. I’m going home.
To have a slice of cake.
