IT SURE MAKES ME THINK

IT SURE MAKES ME THINK


It sure makes me think
when hunger depletes the earth
and I overeat.

And I overeat
as much as I dare to hold,
and still want dessert.

And still want dessert:
like a glutton I still graze,
scoping for more food.

Scoping for more food:
eating fills my place of peace.
plugging the empty.

Plugging the empty:
stuffing when the whole world starves--
it sure makes me think!
