We overpay to over-eat,
then we feverously attempt
to burn this excess.
To hide our gluttony,
we pay for the gym,
burning precious electricity.
To fit the mold,
of celebrities we pay to idolize,
we desperately lust for perfection.
This vicious cycle,
of over-indulgence combined with
expensive repercussions fuels our desire
to appear modest.
