The Vanity of Pleasure

My sweet sensations in the grind, 
To indulge my lot 
In idle or hot?! 
The tug of war ‘twixt body and mind. 

The two’ve been fighting tooth and nail, 
Their feud led to naught, 
Crass carnal soft spot - 
The pleasure’s pull has tipped the scale. 

Dear me! Exciting versus plain, 
My visceral thought, 
Ascetic, I’m not - 
I would take pleasure, don’t mind vain.
