Evillious Chronicles #3: Gluttony
A poem about the Evil Food Eater.
... ... ...
So insatiable
She's always hungry for more–
She's seeking the best
That the world has to offer
Oh, but now there's nothing left
So pray you'll neʼer meet
She who seeks to devour all—
Yes, even the world
It'll all end up inside
Of her bottomless stomach
Unlasting supper
That's what all this suff'ring is
For this great gourmet
It's ecstasy at its best
Dyed in madder red and rouge
