I feel no need of anonymity
to come here and confess my biggest sin.
I crave too much my junk food, certainly,
but eating it has not yet done me in!
I count my calories and do not smoke;
I exercise and never do I drink.
I’ve not had drugs, not even one small toke,
so why no time for dishes in my sink?
Because my passions rule me! No. . . not flings!
It’s emails, books and films that take my time.
I’ve too much fondness for too many things,
like how I love to sit and make a rhyme. . .
For there’s one thing that overwhelmingly
consumes me and its name is poetry!
