"Last Call" by Joe DiMino.
“Last call!” the angel said
Sporting a devilish-grin—I wondered
Whose side he’s on?
“And listen-up!
Especially you joggers and weightlifters—
Well aware of density difference
Between muscle and dimply-flab—

On transports!—with more no-s
For torsos (weight regulation 0000-infinite2)

How they tend to spontaneously
Swell out of control,
Pushing all other mere
Topics aside—
And believe me,
None of you would want this craft to sink!”
He warned with a devious grin
As he helped me aboard
A lump of Gray-matter hidden within the folds
Of my ego—
