Well, it’s that time of the week again…

This is Shorts #9 (or short stories and/or poems). If you haven’t read my explanation in Shorts #1–8, I will explain. I started writing short thoughts, some poetry, in response to the #vss365 prompts on Twitter. I love writing these every day. Each day there is a new word to incorporate into your very small window of characters allowed on Twitter. I will be sharing some of these with you from time to time. You might like trying this yourself at vss365today.com.

As we all know, daily writing is therapeutic, healing, and stimulates your thought processes. Go for it my friend!

What happened
to the wise decree
that moderation
is the key?

Habits formed once
of balance adorned
are now scorned.

Bigger or #massive
is not always the
right way.

So goes the case
of McDonald’s
Big Gulp — in more
than one way
you will pay.
