Short Overeat Poems

Did ya know sea otters hold hands when they sleep
So they won't drift apart, their wedding vows to keep
Now that's a stretch
Didn't know that I bet
This leaves me stunned and makes me overeat...

Dear Santa, I want a guinea pig,
One that can handle his sup.
I'd like one that can overeat,
And doesn't sleep belly up.

And, Dear Santa, our toilet won't flush,
It's really quite a wonder,
So could you bring for my mom,
A brand new toilet plunger?

~~Recovering Hope~~


       Existing in fear is nothing to cheer
       Your death cannot be hidden from
       A sunny day could be your last 
       It comes to one and all
       Some drink till dead
       Some overeat
       Stop the fear
       Let go
       Live

Can't get to sleep
    Wake up too late
  Afternoon snooze
    Mealtimes confused

  Yet when I get up early
    All day I'm surly
  Overeat, stuff my face
    I'm in a bad place...  

  What? You're jealous of me
    'Cos I sleep 'til 9:33
  And at breakfast I tarry
    Over waffles with blueberries

  Well then! Life's not so bad after all 
    ~ Didn't realize I was having a ball...

Pat loved pickled onions,
She ate them every day,
She had an addiction,
That kept her friends at bay.

Pat ate them in the mornings,
And every single night.
She did not smoke cigarettes,
As she might set herself alight.

Pat did not swallow pills,
Or narcotics of any kind
She was seldom ill
And she possessed a sound mind.

Pat did not overeat,
Or drink wine or beer at all,
Pickled onions were her passion,
Which led to Pat's downfall!...

Cardinal had his eye on the crow
But she said, “not cardinal, not ever, whoa!”
Crow had her eye on Wren who was sweet.
Wren never pigged out, did not overeat.

Cardinal was kind of a hog you see.
Flying down first from every tree.
The second birdseed was put out.
Before other birds could give a shout.

At their wedding Cardinal did not attend.
Pouting about it to the absolute end.
They did not miss him, guests had a blast.
And their nuptials were solid, they did last....
