Eating alone, I work my way 
down sizes in my closet from 16 to 12
 
make regular trips to the tailor,
have waistbands taken in.
 
I walk in holding a man’s hand. Should you need it,
I can let waists back out. Very professional,
 
no one will notice. The tailor
was correct, no one noticed alterations,

at least not
in the clothing.
