Why Did I Eat That Pie?
by Lisa Eldridge
Inspiration piece

Why did I eat that pie?
It went directly to my thigh.
Not the left one, but the right.
I wish I had stopped at one bite.

Why did I drink that gin?
Did I think it would help me stay thin?
Why did I snort that coke?
To be friends with the glamorous folk?

Why did I smoke that joint?
Because…maybe…uh, what was my point?
Why did I date that guy?
He dumped me and that made me cry.

So why did I date that guy?
And why did I eat that pie?
