I am not familiar with this form and in general just a hack.
But I agree totally with the sentiment of this piece so I'll mark it high.
It fits all the criteria as laid out in the comments.
It is to the point and it is funny. Well done.

Thanks a lot for the generous stars. There are four major sections in our home profile, Fanstory, FanArt, FanMusic and Poetry Dances. The Monostich poem can be read in Poetry dances, in fact, all the poetic styles are there and available for our individual study. It is up for the writer to choose what particular poetic form he wants to write on. God bless. Susan

I enjoyed the humour in this piece, Nassus. I thought that this was an original concept used and I thought it was well written. Your writing flowed well and I couldn't find any faults. Thanks for sharing...Jacob

This brought a smile about. I'm always working on my weight but food I find is my weakness. I love to eat!! Your notes also carry some great humor. Thank you for sharing. Best wishes to you.

I don't see much poetry in this form generally - seems more like a quick gag routine, as reflected in the very funny example in your notes.

Yours is very clever, too. Indeed, if we lost our taste buds as well as a few pounds, we'd all STAY thinner.

Best wishes, Ray

Thanks a lot Ray, I recommend that you visit Poetry dances also in this site. All the poetic styles are available for review and the writer's own individual study. Monostich is just one of the many, so this poetic style is legitimate and not member created. Thanks again Ray for the encouraging stars. God bless. Susan

The routine was destined to fail. The weight loss program should be a win-win idea and not a win-lose one. One should have the cake and eat it too. Then losing weight would be a cake walk.:)-

Any weight loss programme fails me all the time, the only exercisec I am willing to do, is lifting my hand to my mouth to eat and chewing whatever I eat. Lol

Ha,ha. What your line expresses is so true. Lately, I've lost my taste for sweets and yes, I'm losing a couple of pounds. Exercise only tones and shapes, but I never lost weight doing push-ups, running, etc. Gotta ditch the calories.

Being a dieter, I've often wondered if I had my taste buds surgically removed, I might be more successful. The very, very short poem tells the whole story.

Well, that seems to be my problem whenever I try to lose weight through exercise. I have to learn not to do the fork to mouth routine :)

Hello :)

I like your monostich poem. It is simple and to the point. It's hard to keep up with a diet and to succeed you have relearn new habits... a hard thing to do. Good job!
