Elephants

"I'm in a hospital for elephants"
one of them told me,
pinching what wasn't there.
"What makes you say that?"
I asked the girl with long fair hair,
She said,
"Isn't it obvious?
My weight,
my body,
it's awful."
I said,
"Oh you sweet girl,
you've barely got a handful.
You're really skin and bones
I can tell you've purged by your jawline.
You're not going to get better
if you just sit here and whine"
"I'm in a hospital for elephants"
She told me once again.
I can't believe it's not obvious.
It's why I have no friends.
