Tonight's Poet Corner: Large
Large
by Belinda Roddie
Sometimes, you gotta head back
to work, and your body sags
as if under an invisible burden
you hardly recognize anymore.
Sometimes, you gotta withdraw
an offer for a place you thought
was a palace but wasn't fit
for the king of fools.
And sometimes, the pizza place
you ordered delivery from
ups your order a size without
making you pay more.
Life can be good, bro.
