Day 1 - Fast

It's Drawtober/Inktober time again. Each day this month there will be another drawing prompt and I'm going to try to create not just a drawing but also a poem to go along with it. Also for the first time this year, my oldest daughter is participating with drawings of her own (but she's over on Instagram, where all the cool kids hang out). She's also doing better than me at posting in a timely manner, so I'd better hurry and catch up.

So here's Day 1. The prompt is "Fast".  (And don't worry, I don't really need a blood test...)

I need a blood test

So they say

It’s scheduled in about a day

Until that time

I cannot eat

No fruits or veggies, soup or meat

No coffee or

Blueberry pie

It’s water only for this guy

So as I starve here

For so long

I think somebody got it wrong

Cause in a day

Without repast
There’s absolutely nothing fast
