GLUTTONY

(Halloween poem)

Greed is the glutton 
that impales the mind, 
heart,stomach and soul.

it consumes the eyes.
shuts down the mind
The stomach swells- 
The heart is numb. 
It be then,empathy fails.

No mercy for self 
take more than you need
The bulging eyes react.
With grimy hands,
Evil penetrates 
The gluttonous soul of man..

To counteract 
We must react
It will be a mistake if we wait,
We must stuff you with garlic, 
Pierce your heart with a stake;
Chop off your head.-

Oh but we must. 
Right before dusk..
No longer will you lust 
I beg,I beg,give gluttony 
Over to the miserable 
land of the Un-dead.
