If I Were Able

I I were able,
I would be svelte
or at least fashionable.
If I could do this
with willpower,
I'd have done it,
written the book
and told the world
how to succeed.
If I could have,
I would have,
freed from shame,
released from guilt.
But I couldn't.
I can't. But fortunately
I don't need to.
I received it all
as a gift for the taking.
