he eats an avocado lunch alone

taking small spoonfuls of fresh green

between reminders of high-fat content

and counter-arguments that

it is the good kind of fat


later, he asks himself,

is my waist shrinking

or are my hips growing?

in the tidy silent bathroom --

his shirt unbuttoned


each side flung behind him

as if to mimic paper in the wind.
