GLUTTONY WEARS YOU DOWN

you know gluts are bad things ... they stand in the way of good things happening ... the traffic jams they cause can make you sick to your stomach ... a minor roadblock here and you can start to stumble ... a little one there and your arm begins to throb ... big ones bring a man down ... they leave him looking for a pulse an eviction order in his pocket ... bad things happen and good things aren't allowed so who would like a glut ... well it must be us we get them all the time ... here now they made the wrapper to slow you down ... if it weren't for the spoon you'd eat it by the gallon ... there's a glass ... you mean to drink how many more ... here are the books ... how many have you read ... how many do you own ... it's just that when he said it I knew it was something I should know but the time I never had the time to return or the heart to throw it out ... there were so many things in my head ... not the dates ... the dates were actually helpful ... not the characters they had a solidity on their own ... no it was the ideas ... they came in one by one but their friends crowded in behind them ... I can't think straight
