Gluttonous and gourmandise
People are greedy for gourmet food
In a pleasing fashion
An exquisite taste
Pleasing the eyes
Soothing the taste buds
A sign of wealth and prosperity
Of course with no thoughts of
Poverty, epidemics, disasters and wars
On the other side of the earth
In their absence
We feel happy and satisfied
In every bits of our bodies and mind
With every bits of the surrounding
With every bits of the world
And with every gratefulness to God

My heart is a glutton
it gorges on sorrow
it's like pressing a button
then BAM I weep til tomorrow
I am a miserable psycho
the things I love make me cry
my jealousy consumes me and I hope
that I can just die

These ideals I avoid
Perplex me most annoyed
So wrapped up in myself
Faith kneels down on a shelf
Lost beyond conceit here
This azure mirage sphere
Claims my journeys aren't done
Since trials have just begun
I let you down again
Rage abhors the brakeman
My blood denies its roots
While my consciousness loots
Belief denies assent
This foul bile shall ferment
Dissolving from within
Pasts fixed with a clothespin
Just what spawns this wild hair?
I'm still trudging nowhere
Hoping won't stop my slide
Staggering from bromide
Pupils reveal my loss
Those dots can't reach across
That vast gap in between
What my third eye has seen
My rods and cones race off
When truth and faith face-off
Behind suns where you hide
Outbursts lurk deep inside
Far too brilliant to face
In our system's crankcase
Blazes fume from passions
Ebbing holy rations
Prayers burn as they stroke you
From caustic residue
I don't deserve your trust
Since toxins sear robust
Holes within your design
And visions most divine
Dash from my open eye
Begging for your reply
