Gravity

Belinda Richmond 1979 (Chicago)



When I was younger
I was built like a Coke
 Shape bottle but
because of Gravity
 I am now a 200 Gal. Keg.
I used to be shapely but
now I'm heavy
 because of Gravity
I used to be Skinny but
now I'm Chunky
And I own it All to
my good Friend Gravity
A lot of things Changed
Because of Gravity
Gravity took a toll on my
Body
Thanks to the likes of
GRAVITY!!!!
