This is a poem about our modern society in which women are more or less compelled to diet.

Almost every second program on TV is about reducing weight.

This is a small poem to reverse that.

We Need More Round Women

By

James Bredin

I think all women should carry an extra twenty pounds,

We don’t need bony women as skinny as greyhounds,

And those extra pounds should be in all the right places,

And they should all look well fed with nice round faces.

And those skinny women who jump up and say I’m wrong,

Have been reading those big fat diet books far too long,

Or listening to some talking head on TV giving advice,

‘Bout bad fat or bad cholesterol, they swear is not nice.

And to the one or two of you who may have some doubt,

Who think I probably don’t know what I’m talking about,

Go to Tim Hortons, McDonalds or Burger King,

Eat your fill of donuts hamburgers or chicken wing.

We need mmore round women and men with diabetes and high blood pressure, more men and women who walk with difficulty and labored breathing.
In Viet Nam if you stay out of the French restaurants and eat only local food you can eat your fill of the most delicious everyday fare in the world and you will not get terribly round. If you abjure the rice- it's easy- you will stay healthy and slim. If you do that and excercise and/or lift weights, you will be muscular and trim. It's kind of like the Atkins diet plus rice.

My sister is living in Japan. She loves the food there because it has carbs but she's losing a lot of weight. I've had Vietnamese food before. Reminds me of West Indian food, also very spicy and asian.
