Gluttony

very unheathy

When food tastes too good
gourmands eat too much
A habit becomes a problem
walking will require a crutch

 

Eating everything in sight
is a hazard for the obese
Their hunger doesn't stop
until their days on earth cease

 

Survival is unlikely
for the obese and the underfed
Their end comes too soon
due to the tragic life they led

 

All animal species
eventually end this way
The few that survive
are another animal's prey

 

Diets will not help
if living to eat is the plan
Gluttony will take its toll
for any woman or man

 

Where does one learn
these habits so wrong
It has to be their family
and their desire to belong

 

The change must begin
with the very young
With a diet that doesn't cause
a gluttonous tongue

 

Longevity gets a start
when families eat the right food
Giving the next generation
a healthier attitude
