Too Much of Anything

It is generally said that excess of anything Good or bad is not ultimately benefiting This, therefore, calls for firm controlling Of whatever exercise we are conducting. Delicious foods in surplus do huge damages This is verily true of all fleeting belongings Their enjoyment breeds additional desires And induce the mind into unnecessary craving. The one steeped in moral and ethical thinking May find it awfully repulsive and nauseating The appalling acts and practices of overdoing Act as impediments in our further progressing. Neither too much of excitement and rejoicing Nor excessive load of weariness and weeping But a balanced approach to all things looming Find a proper and suitable step for succeeding. All said and done about excess of everything But for Mark Twain’s humorous commenting That too much of everything is just too much But too much of whiskey is just the right thing.
