FOOD, GLORIOUS FOOD

I have an underlying passion for food.

Just look at my waistline;

It tells a tale

Of wicked obsession with

Oral delights tickling taste buds

To snap to attention.

Marvelous scents tease

Olfactory senses,

Begging, pleading,

Wanting for more.

Baked or broiled, fried or filleted,

Toasted or tossed to a turn,

Not to mention

I'm never left out when

They offer up seconds,

Or met a desert I didn't enjoy;

Obsessed with a fire raging out of control

Which no flood of water can possibly douse.

If this trend continues unchecked and unaltered

With no end in sight, no method employed to

Cure the beast that rages inside me,

I'm sure that I'll soon be

The size of a house.
