Best Overindulgence Poems

America, why did you stray from the old way.
A constitution put forth, the foundation of our land,
barely recognizable what was originally Jefferson's hand.
Tarnished and smudged by misinterpretation,
overindulgence and greed, to satisfy political,
judicial, and journalistic need.
Once majority rule, now bordering on ridicule,
the law of the land,...

Why, oh why can't I deny
That the ones I love
Are causing my soul's hope to die,

But will you ever see it from my point of view
Or will you always consider my treasures
Were stored up for your constant abuse,

I graced your existence with the glistening seas
Provided...

As I take my right hand and gently lay it across my chest, I begin to take a long deep breath. With my eyes shut tight every heart beat genuinely whispering cries I belong to you. Visualizing moving heaven and earth I thirst to touch...

Chris Farley's idol was John Belushi
and Chris Farley assimilated John Belushi to a tee.
His very fast lifestyle, his overindulgence of drugs and alcohol
but he also assimilated John Belushi's comedy best of all.
Both have made me laugh so hard that I couldn't catch my breath.
Such a...

His more than ample physique,
was a profuse plethora of abundance,
a surfeit of shameless gastronome
that defined a cornucopia of excess
and a masticating overindulgence.

Such a pity to gormandize,
to binge, gorge, and satiate.
to devour in such excess, 
in such morbid over indulgence,
in such heinous and nefarious gluttony.

His self-inflicted...

Addicted to somethin’ 
My thoughts no longer own
A fish tank full of submarines 
Swimming schools of piranhas
Waking up soaking wet
Sharks swimming in my sweat

Sleeping on the cold floor
Petrified to close the door
Or open when closed...nightmares 
Circling ahead...flocks of aeroplanes 
Like vultures to a carcass 
Feeding...

I don't have to be a monk,
tucked away on some far off mountain,
to feel the profound joy
of contemplation.

Nor do I have to be a party animal
to laugh at ridiculous jokes,
during game night
in the company of cherished friends.

Flip me all you want
I will either land on...

New Years Eve celebration
Ever so grateful of redemption 
With overindulgence of consumption

Year-end celebrating 
Edibles I've been craving
Aha so much champagne drinking
Recoup from stomach bloating
Swaying, light-headed teetering

Eek nightcaps of antacid
Verily, not so lucid
Eau de mornings, feeling putrid



For Francine Roberts' contest, "New Years Eve,"...

To aid the celebration’s overindulgence
of snow and damp, sugar and fat,
serve a cornucopia of felicitous fiber
   and its vitamin rush—
whirligig of walnuts and crisp cranberries,
Honeycrisp apples and wild red strawberries,
spring mix sprinkled with balsamic and fig.

Give a fig* about your friendships and figure.
Strap...

Man and animals collectively are known as creatures: 
Overindulgence of sleeping, eating and sex amounts to animals 
Man's thinking and reasoning make Man's features 
Complexities are Man's qualities, awesome and phenomenal. 


Mankind we adore............. 



Enlightenment from Manhood, Lord Buddha attained 
after meditating and selfless giving,...

Saint Patrick died on March 17th.
So we celebrate the day with green and drink.

Patrick, was kidnapped to Ireland as a slave,
a condition he never fully forgot or forgave.

Patty (as he was known by his friends)  
was a sober, relentless, devout Christian.

As a missionary, he...

Dew drops fell on my eyelids,

as I lay upon dampened ground

I sighed and looked heavens up astound,

wishing for the pain to cease

I wiped my brow of all crease

with dismay my mind wonders

If it really is she that is yonder

Against the golden glow

her warm sight comes...

All of the joys
Of chocolate…
Delightful pleasure
of tiny secretions 
that excites taste.
Releasing mounds of
Milky darkness…
An assortment of
Overindulgence,
A savory variety of 
Irresistible explosions
And heavenly bliss…
Layers of richness
That taunts sensors to
Recall succulent memories
Of indelible guilt,
An insatiable desire 
To spawn a gluttonous
Compromise…
Hers is Godiva,
Deep chocolaty inner dream-
Deliciously black coated
Vanilla...

When I lay down on my deathbed,
Remember me…remember me forevermore
When I give in to silent slumber,
Don’t grieve for me…
I’m in God’s hand – 
A pleasant placement that I adore

When I wake up from this horrifying nightmare,
Dream not…dream not of war or violence
When I try to...

Subconscious thought periodically drops you into my cotton candy dream world.

The FM dial drizzles my mind with syrupy sweet remnants of the past.

I bite through the chewy nougat of what-could-have-been.

Zinfandel-laced thought processes amplify the rich, chocolatey memories, and morph them into an overindulgence that make...
