The Trash Compactor

Another sweet plucked off

of the great pile of unnecessary

human pollution supply and

fork-lifted into her throat,

she sits, almost twenty feet high

and a mile wide,

noticeable from the Hubble,

as much as a miniature

aircraft carrier covered

in fat, yet bloated and

disfigured, powdered sugar

caked to her palms

without qualms

of her protruding belly,

Another jelly donut, please!

It's just a little snack, just a

little bag to crunch on while

watching her stadium-sized

tele,

no one ever taught her

that chewing with an open

mouth could lead to requests

of utilizing her mouth for the

new and improved power source

of a hazardous waste compactor,

no sir, not unless it's covered in

chocolate,

no trash is never getting near

your mouth.
