I dreamt of a feast In the warmth of the sun That made my mouth drool And my eyes water The scent clouded my mind So tempting I didn't even try to resist Didn't even wait for an invite Instead in full consciousness I leant forward with both hands And gorged Indulged more that I should have I stuffed my mouth with delicacies And moaned aloud at the ******* flavours Utter bliss With complete abandonment I didn't slow down Until my belly ached And my jaw grew tired Uncontrollably I took more than my fill Until I became nauseated Dizzy And my body slumped I sat panting Stomach bloated Hands stained with the evidence Each inhale squashed against my organs This time I moaned for different reasons Turning away from the morsels which remained Their sight now offending me Loud and booming I heard the call to prayer Telling me to hurry And I remember lying there Filled with sheer dread Skin clammy with a sheen of sweat Daunted with the reality That I was supposed to be fasting Supposed to be abstaining Early that morning I had made an oath to God And I had broken it A wail broke out from my mouth At the horror Of my sins All the while My brain chanted Again and again Eve had only eaten an apple
