GLUTTON


They called me 'Glutton', I don't care
A day without food I don't dare
So many folks wondered and stare
The amount in my plate they fear


Doctor advised against my intake
Mum tried to short my big cake
"Don't dare, that would be a mistake"
Far from the truth, infact a big fake


Dad frowned at my burger size
He asked "what about the French fries"?
I said I don't like French on my fries
I love my Spag and Pie being Thai

Will do anything for my rice being chinese
My bread with big spread and mayonnaise
Breakfast at McDonald, lunch at Adonis
Top up dinner with different macaronies

Months later I became sick
So bad I looked a freak
Mom said "hope you can now fast a week"
Wouldn't seven days without food make One weak?
