\nThis week’s Our Lady of Weight Loss ART was inspired by the poem ‘Yesterday’ written by Cody Walker. Walker’s book “Shuffle and Breakdown<\/a>“, combines a pinch of Walt Whitman with a dash of Richard Pryor. Readers can expect to be pulled in many wonderful directions.
\nHere is a taste …
\nYesterday
\nby Cody Walker<\/strong>
\nI had the thought to create an elixir
\n(or really, a conjuring agent) in a giant mixer –
\nenough to summon a ghoul or two,
\nso that I might stop obsessing about you.
\nGod, my co-pilot,
\ntold me to file it
\nunder “Ridiculous Ideas I’ll Soon Regret.”
\nBut nothing else has worked, yet.
\nFor more poetry fun, stay tuned-in; April is National Poetry Month!

\nPoem in Your Pocket<\/a>
\nSpread the POETIC word … NOT the icing,
