All you can eat (Free verse) by flatliner
I've eaten from the endless self-pity platter
it doesn't fill me but it does sustain me,
I like how it feels, being sad.
I know it's time to leave this buffet,
but it's a good value, what a deal,
so I'll stay another round.
Heaping it high I lean back and feel
the weight of self indulgence.
There is a price to pay for this,
but I don't have a coupon handy.
It's last call at the dessert bar,
so I sprinkle some miss yous', (I mean cashews)
and ask for a to go box.
It's a good value, what a deal,
but I can't stay another round.
