Paving the Way to Craving

I was at a party yesterday/this morning. An hours worth of sleep + alcohol = not good writing material. To put it politely, I feel rather sluggish >.< 










They say it's a sin
gluttony 
but it's almost 
too easy 
to give in.


Eat what you want
hunger not the
main question
boredom gets the most 
attention. 


Craving, 
paving
the way for the food
to enter your mouth.
Regret bites
at the pleasure 
of the taste rolling
along the tongue
but not hard enough
to stop it from happening
again
and again.

The Power of Will


Greed teases you
taunts you
questions your ability 
on the things 
that make you weak.


I might get a snack
Really? 
I'm trying to be healthy
So no snack?
No, I'm OK.
You don't want any chocolate?
No, no, I'm OK
Chocolate . . .


And you give in
Will hangs his head
in shame
Greed rubs his belly 
with glee
Hormones pout
she is a mix of 
content and
horrified.
