Desperation

Diet’s didn’t work,
the weight lurked, 
ruled, oppressed.
Overeaters Anonymous?
You’ve got to be kidding.
People sitting in a circle,
reading, talking, 
chanting rituals.
No diets, no reporting, 
no plans to follow.
Just talk about insanity,
some higher power,
resentments, fear,
face people harmed.
What changes is life!
Weight loss is a byproduct.
