All You Can Eat

A Poem by Pete
"

He who distinguishes the true savor of his food can never be a glutton; he who does not cannot be otherwise. - Thoreau

a twisted buffet
my thoughts feed upon themselves
until i vomit

Author's Note

Pete
"As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives." - Thoreau
