Duodecimus

Gluttony
Indulging in carnal pleasures
I'll devour anything with utmost haste
Desiring for more to consume
I revel as I drink and taste

It does not matter who hungers
For I only care about my hunger
In glee my mouth waltzes
While the needy masses suffer

I don't care for taste nor smell
As long all these are mine alone
Now bring in the plates
Before I have you thrown

I'll take in everything edible
I'll leave nothing to spare
Call me a disgusting mess
And I won't even care

Stomach acid shall melt everything
Even morality and reason
Gluttony is the undying hunger
By which against God I commit treason
