A poem of gluttony; one of the seven deadly sins.
Gluttony One of the Seven By Franklin Price 12/19/2016 Gluttony one of the seven sins That are deadly and defined The Christmas Season's calling me To make it one of mine Two turkeys on the table And twenty pounds of ham I'll gain fifteen on Christmas day May even have some spam The turkey and stuffing Mashed potatoes and the ham All the low cal pies and cakes Will make me fatter than I am Southern sweet tea sugared 'Til syrup would be dismayed Will wash down all the pastries That put belt buckles in the shade Still have ten pounds I added When we gave November thanks No longer looking like a jock Now looking like a tank Not saying I'm a glutton Every day throughout the year But I am on eating holidays I think I've made that very clear I don't really mean to sin I'll exercise in sun and rain I'll have ten months to lose the weight Before I do it all again
