"glutton" poems
She's like a drama queen, Plays the 'blame game' like a loser, Fair minded as a bigot, Wages war like drones, As free as surveillance, As open as privatized prisons, As equal as feudalism, As rich as the beggar masses, Bankrupt as homeowners, Socialist as the military, Truthful, trustful as "NEWS," as propaganda, Pagan as the manufactured Goddess 'Columbia,' Christian as the stingy, Pious as a sinner, Wicked as securities, exchanges on 'Wall Street,' Insecure as an empire, Greedy as a fast food glutton, As brave as a fool, Warmongering as a chicken hawk politician, Machevellian as a coward, As rigged as the free market, As selfish as Capitalism, As tolerant as Islam, Beautiful as a clear cut forest, Charming as a strip mall, Forward thinking as chaos, Lawless as congress, United as a belligerent crowd, Compassionate as a swat team, Green as any petrochemical company, Organic as pollution, Deep as a strip mine  .  .  .   .  .  .

Similes for America
A populace filled with totalitarian tranquility The supposition that the world is in a harmonic homeostasis Blissful ignorance that leads to careless calamity Amid the uproar of the most populated of places Therein lies the seed of humanity’s deceptive destruction A solitary host housing a virulent virus Infectious disease that proceeds crisis and corruption Hope only stands with the powerful and pious Prognosis describes communicable cannibalism Rabid outbursts show signs of voracious violence The harrowing pandemic leads to ceaseless cataclysm Cities and towns suspended in systemic silence Habitations riddled with gratuitous gore Hope fades in the wake of the crimson carnage The pestilent hoard feeds to a glutton’s galore The Author of humanity publishes the final page The closing verse rains down a rapturous recompense The high cost of a dense population paid at humanity’s existential expense

Affliction’s Assimilation
A pivot, A ****** A watershed Been miserably waiting for dawn in my head Then the day came A day my mismatch soul and body met I fed on your words and voices Wolf down everything from you and store them up Taking mental snapshot in the dark And prepare myself for yet another brutal week I fed on tasty food and a good mood Treat myself with something tangible Glutton is never a sin for me I fed on fantasies.

Wednesday
One man and lots of women Gathered in your kitchen For a barbecue and luncheon Full of banter, wit and glutton Wrecking ***** and chat roulette And an 80s design vignette The food was finger licking And the company uplifting What congeniality Thanks for the hospitality

Lunch
*If I could have you for a night I’d stop the dawn from bringing light I’d make the stars stay out and play And make the moon hold back the day If I could have you in my arms I’d unleash my southern charms I’d unlock every fantasy And be all that you want of me If I could have you in my bed With sweet seduction you’d be fed I’d give you treats and pleasured sighs And let you taste of sugared thighs I’d make you glutton of this feast Your every whim would be released I’d let you do just what you will And let your body taste my thrill I’d bind you up, and make you crave And tease your sights and make you slave Then I would let you conquer me And stake your claim of victory I’d bathe your body, lick you dry In covered dreams I’d let you lie Then gently I would make you wake My hungry love to satiate I’d dance before you, undulate You’d reach for me, I’d hesitate I’d belly dance before your eyes Your harem girl, in veiled disguise My sultan, I’d be bound to do just everything you’d want me to I’d let you take me one more time In candle light, you'd be just mine Each moment tasting of divine My every kiss dipped in sublime My every touch would bring delight If I had you for just one night*

*After five good years of drought It rained kisses and warming hugs After my heart emaciating from rejection I have experienced a resurrection She kissed me wholly and deep She sowed and had to reap Could not recall the feminine grip Even how to undo a lady zip She kissed my upper and lower lip Then around my body took a trip Tore my favorite shirt,no time to unbutton She ate my skin softly hard as a glutton Not sure it was her mouth on my *** Cause I couldn't open my eyes as she did it She passed her soft fingers on my chest Luckily I hadn't on my fitting vest Crawled about my belly like a worm While my ****** heart beat loud as a drum She said something I didn't hear Because passion had blocked my ear She then undid my belt and my trousers Quicker than all internet browsers Then...then put the muzzle in her mouth Was she aware of the bullet, I doubt She cleared all the rust through the years While in pleasure I cried happy tears She knew how to hold the whistle and blow Between where she knelt down low Her palm around me was a soft tight glove Felt she's the one that I deserved Like a snake she crawled back up And astride the volcanic plug sat Asap Not afraid of the sharp edges causing harm She kissed me violently and hurt my gum I just couldn't care less at such a moment Of a soothing ride, a welcome torment Soon overtaken by my inner animal I realized I could not take it anymore And took charge of the walk to heaven While the clock alarmed, think eleven She arched tout like a hunters bow And her eyes brightly seemed to glow My journey deep was careful and slow But the return as swift as Pacman's blow I loved the way she clawed her nails Into me, she reopened all my wells I wanted to take her for a longer ride But the wave of passion killed me,I died Even when we were done I remained inside Watching her skin as pale as transfiguration Out of the joy we had shared, I'm glad I received my emotional resurrection*

They sit like the curve of a parabola facing in. Though they do not see each other. He sees only himself amidst the gore and rot which once passed as a picnic lunch. Pickled spines and curried thought processes to name but a few of the delectables today. In he reaches, grabbing handfuls of cured flesh, and not leaving any time for chewing. The yellow fog is syrup and makes him heavy-headed. The trees are old men, curved backs and withered from living. They only want a kind ear to hear their untold stories of life, love and death. Glutton wants food. he guzzles and guzzles and never listens to those who want him to listen. So he eats, they cry, they die and they are all alone together.

The Picnic
Bustopher Jones is not skin and bones— In fact, he’s remarkably fat. He doesn’t haunt pubs—he has eight or nine clubs, For he’s the St. James’s Street Cat! He’s the Cat we all greet as he walks down the street In his coat of fastidious black: No commonplace mousers have such well-cut trousers Or such an impreccable back. In the whole of St. James’s the smartest of names is The name of this Brummell of Cats; And we’re all of us proud to be nodded or bowed to By Bustopher Jones in white spats! His visits are occasional to the Senior Educational And it is against the rules For any one Cat to belong both to that And the Joint Superior Schools. For a similar reason, when game is in season He is found, not at Fox’s, but Blimpy’s; He is frequently seen at the gay Stage and Screen Which is famous for winkles and shrimps. In the season of venison he gives his ben’son To the Pothunter’s succulent bones; And just before noon’s not a moment too soon To drop in for a drink at the Drones. When he’s seen in a hurry there’s probably curry At the Siamese—or at the Glutton; If he looks full of gloom then he’s lunched at the Tomb On cabbage, rice pudding and mutton. So, much in this way, passes Bustopher’s day- At one club or another he’s found. It can be no surprise that under our eyes He has grown unmistakably round. He’s a twenty-five pounder, or I am a bounder, And he’s putting on weight every day: But he’s so well preserved because he’s observed All his life a routine, so he’ll say. Or, to put it in rhyme: “I shall last out my time” Is the word of this stoutest of Cats. It must and it shall be Spring in Pall Mall While Bustopher Jones wears white spats!

Chameleon of Pretense True colors Not always colorful No absolutes No boundaries Shades of gray Deep dark deceit Disguises shallow self A chameleon of pretense Forever changing Their spectrum of sincerity To temporarily fit The moment at hand Pretending and professing Haughty hypocrites are we Selfishly And single-handedly Glorifying A colorful Glittering glutton Of pride...

Chameleon of Pretense

(not peter..copyright laws) cavorting with fibonacci's numbers, 1,1,3,5,8,13,21....and so on. playing leap frog, in a hedge maze. they play and add and hop and grow, in an unending  trail, spiraling off.... into the west, in a sweet smelling lavender haze. at this point, i'm now thinking... just, how much sherry did aunty beryl put in this magic trifle.... if i am honest with myself   and with you as well. i will open my heart to confess. to three new, believed abstractions: one; after all these years(47) i am still enamoured of beatrix's cute little rabbits (but i must still claim miss jemima puddleduck as my  all time favourite) two; fibonacci's numbers still rule (what an extraordinary mind this man owned and used to the betterment of man kind) and three; ....much more prosaically.. you see... i fear i am having a moment of metenoia .... with regard to the trifle... and the amount of it's delctable connsumption. i can now clearly and a tiny bit queasily, see.... what it is  to be a glutton!!! and i find repentant thoughts of never again will i eat so much...

Hope is a subtle Glutton—
Is it greed, or just a deep sense of self hatred That drives you To punish your insides In such a sadistic manner? If the body is a temple, then god only knows What kind of deity you worship. And if suffering truly is the path to glory Then your cirrhosed liver will deliver you, surely To the land of Milk Duds and Honey-O's. It is not a battle of good versus evil But of man versus food; Many are the casualties in this war – Behold the fallen heroes, Wearing their purple hardened arteries Like badges of honour. A triple heart bypass scar bears testament To the bravery of these devotees Who congregate daily at the All-You-Can-Eat. We gather here today, in this cafeteria, To witness this formidable challenge, This ritual of self-desecration, The stop-watch waiting To count down the Seconds To your sweet salvation. With eyes glazed over and bated breath We will watch you eat yourself to death. A celebration of gluttony, The sacrificial lamb (and pork, and beef..) Laid out before you, dripping Hot sauce and melted mozzarella: A 10 pound behemoth That must be slain In order to ensure victory And bring you one step closer To meeting your maker Bon apetit

Glutton for punishment
Oh love! that stronger art than Wine, Pleasing Delusion, Witchery divine, Wont to be priz'd above all Wealth, Disease that has more Joys than Health; Though we blaspheme thee in our Pain, And of Tyranny complain, We are all better'd by thy Reign. What Reason never can bestow, We to this useful Passion owe: Love wakes the dull from sluggish ease, And learns a Clown the Art to please: Humbles the Vain, kindles the Cold, Makes Misers free, and Cowards bold; And teaches airy Fops to think. When full brute Appetite is fed, And choakd the Glutton lies and dead; Thou new Spirits dost dispense, And fine'st the gross Delights of Sense. Virtue's unconquerable Aid That against Nature can persuade; And makes a roving Mind retire Within the Bounds of just Desire. Chearer of Age, Youth's kind Unrest, And half the Heaven of the blest!

Song
*Gluttony always requires company. What's the point showing off greed alone? Gluttony has no policy of equality. A glutton is accustomed to fatten his rotten soul. Greed feeds the glutton, food, money, power, *** no thought for anyone but themselves. Selfish to the core. Excessive desire turning commodities into necessities, the biggest car, the flashiest ring, the biggest house, the newest toy, but no joy. The excessive desire for the sin of want, Gula. Gluttony*

Hashtag:weirddreams In a dream I looked upon a world like this; The future was here. It was today. It was now and the wings on birds had malted, and the atmosphere was spent. Spent, because currency had proven worthless.   Hashtag:firstworldprobs (piles on top of piles of    washingtonsjeffersonsandgrants    now sat                                             stagnant,    Hashtag:getmoney             devalued over time by the American glutton who had paved our roads with imported plastic, cheap polymers to build empires quickly, since we were so young with so little history so little culture and so little ritual. Hashtag:omgsoboring. We played catch-up by simply investing very little effort, and paying very little respect, With expectations of getting really ******* Big).  Hashtag:sorrynotsorry Which didn’t end up working. Hashtag:whoops And so then we just burned up all that money, quite literally, ignited by the last few drops of oil we could manage to squeeze from Earth’s stones. And its smoke, smelling faintly of our forefathers’ intentions, turned the turbines for our televisions and deep fryers while we sat and felt ourselves getting smaller and smaller. Then I woke up, and realized it was only a dream.   Hashtag:

Roar of the rushing train fearfully rocking, Impatient people jammed in line for food, The rasping noise of cars together knocking, And worried waiters, some in ugly mood, Crowding into the choking pantry hole To call out dishes for each angry glutton Exasperated grown beyond control, From waiting for his soup or fish or mutton. At last the station's reached, the engine stops; For bags and wraps the red-caps circle round; From off the step the passenger lightly hops, And seeks his cab or tram-car homeward bound; The waiters pass out weary, listless, glum, To spend their tips on harlots, cards and ***

On the Road
Like sugar from a shaker, snow falls on Saul the baker delivering steamy biscuits from the shop he calls his home to a drafty run down mansion where the princess on her pension can be testy with her tension, hence she's living on her own. Today he took her order, "One fresh bagel, for a quarter 'cause I haven't seen the likes of one since I left my childhood home". Well he'd never baked a bagel, but he's not one to finagle and wanting just to please her, finds a recipe from Rome. And he's thinking to himself, "I must be way out of mind~ no woman's gonna want a baker's life" but he carries deep inside his heart, the will to be a friend hoping someday she will come around and one day be his wife. So to win her deep affection he packs up his best confection takes his chances on the back roads, now iced over in the storm. Finds her waiting in the foyer with her thrifty 5 cent lawyer complaining 'bout the day old bread and... "this bagel isn't warm!" So..... he heats it on the fire, 'cause her heart is his desire but she won't accept the bagel for it's not quite the right form And he's thinking to himself, "I must be way out of mind no woman gonna want a baker's life" but he carries deep inside his heart, the will to be a friend hoping someday she will come around and one day be his wife. So he runs back to his bagel board and pounds the dough and rolls a cord and shapes the perfect circle to a bagel lovers dream, He boils and then he bakes it and to her mansion then he takes it piping hot but now she wants it with churned butter from fresh cream! Well he's starting to get antsy but he knows the farmer, Clancy whose butter is fresh-churned and known by counties far and wide. He heads out to the pasture and he buys what he is after and returns to find, 'tis so unkind, the princess, she had died. The baker in his stricken state swallows the bagel off the plate he calls the cops, pulls out the stops and serves the day old bread. He gives the details more than once of how he ate the evidence and though he thought his story bought, they arrested him instead. "Tis a likely story", was the only thing he heard although they'd bought his baked goods, they could not buy his word. "The Baker is a Butcher", is what the tabloid said, "better to take your bagel cold than take it in the head." But all was not as it appears, she owed the butcher in arrears and when they went to check her craw they found a hunk of mutton. It ended all without a trial, the butcher he did reconcile and posted "Pay the butcher now and do not to be a glutton." And Saul was thinking to himself, " I must be way out of mind", no woman's gonna want a baker's life", but he carried deep inside his heart the will to be a friend and it turned rather nicely as she willed him in the end.

Let me tell you a story From a time gone by The tale of a greedy butcher And a pig that could fly In the little village of Piddle Brook There lived a butcher named Mr.Ham He was bearded, bulky, and a belcher And was rumored to eat his own toe jam A lover of all meat Pork,beef,duck,chicken, and mutton All this gorger did was eat He was a professional glutton But Mr.Ham’s appetite was not satisfied He longed for some thick greasy bacon Just a few strips, nicely fried Served with pickled daikon He peeked through his window And with one beady eye Spotted his neighbors hog And pictured a flaky pork pie His mouth watered "What a delicious midnight snack!" "I will barbecue,braise and fry her" "But first I will launch my attack" "Oh but I shan’t become a thief!" "T’was only a whim!" But Mr.Ham’s thin scruples vanished His growling belly got the better of him He grabbed a pitchfork And the hefty hooligan set out He advanced on the sleeping hog And grabbed her by the snout Her piggy eyes shot open And in a flash She darted past the butcher And ran past the fence in a dash Mr.Ham bellowed in rage And waddled after the beast But the pig was too quick Yet Mr.Ham never ceased And so the chase continued A wild game of cat and mouse They ran through the streets Row upon row,house after house Finally the swine was cornered The escaped pig let out a squeal And great feathery wings sprouted from her back Said the pig “Thou shalt not steal” And with one final snort Two leaps and a hop The winged sow flew away And Mr. Ham collapsed with a plop "I suppose it was a sign from above" Mr.Ham sighed with defeat From then on the rotund carnivore Gave up on eating meat

Oh love! that stronger art than Wine, Pleasing Delusion, Witchery divine, Wont to be priz'd above all Wealth, Disease that has more Joys than Health; Though we blaspheme thee in our Pain, And of Tyranny complain, We are all better'd by thy Reign. What Reason never can bestow, We to this useful Passion owe: Love wakes the dull from sluggish ease, And learns a Clown the Art to please: Humbles the Vain, kindles the Cold, Makes Misers free, and Cowards bold; And teaches airy Fops to think. When full brute Appetite is fed, And choakd the Glutton lies and dead; Thou new Spirits dost dispense, And fine'st the gross Delights of Sense. Virtue's unconquerable Aid That against Nature can persuade; And makes a roving Mind retire Within the Bounds of just Desire. Chearer of Age, Youth's kind Unrest, And half the Heaven of the blest!

Who the Hell wants to Go off to Heaven? Think about it please: If you had to spend All eternity With “goody two shoes”, And “zipped up virgins”, And “pious ******* Always putting on Thick sweaters of wool Cause there ain’t no heat, Playing “Yahtzee” and “Old Maid” and “Go Fish” And “Bingo” and “Red Rover Red Rover” Send the next bore on Over! You’d pray and, Oh my dear, you‘d wish To come down to Hell Where the party’s at! By the time Heaven Starts serving soda Water and broccoli Oh my dear you’ll crave: ***** Linguini A full Trough of Sloth A Southern Wrath Wrap Greed’s mead, Peppered Pride Glutton’s Mutton and Sweet Envy’s Smoothie. Can you live with just Holding their cold hand? Sitting on some cloud, Gazing and never Feeling or touching? Never burning, nor Experimenting? This is blunt, but think, This is where all the Interesting folks Go! Laughter? Its here! Debauchery? Here! Creativity! Ingenuity! We are what made life, LIFE! Think about it! Has obedience, Has docility, Has simplicity, Has submission changed This world? This universe? A wise man, once said “If heaven is where, “Nice” folks like you go, Then its surely hell That I’d rather know” Here is the freedom! Here are the cool kids! Why starve in the light, When in the dark there’s Every delight and Every single thing Enjoyed throughout life?

Sunday School Dropout
Thank you for reading this far I really didn't expect our relationship to get off to such a good start After all it's easy to forget on this thing the internet That you're often speaking to someone that you haven't really met. And btw, Please feel free to stop at any time Honestly, I don't mind, No go on -  really - If you click away it's fine We'll just put it down to our different styles - I can't face in all directions No matter how hard I smile. But now, given that we're roughly at the halfway point ---------------------------->  x <------------------------------ Well, we've passed it now, but I'll still make the point Once you're half way through this river of words Turning round and heading home is on balance probably worse Than just pressing on - so press ahead, keep the faith! You never know a scrap of meaning might escape the maze! After all, what is a poem if its subject is unclear? And what's a human who does not know why he is here? But by now you're probably getting bored of my rhymes And wondering what else you could have done with your time... Yet you carry on reading, a glutton for meaning - I know you've kept up or you just wouldn't hear me So now for my message, the bit I believe in - You better click 'Like', before you click leaving.
