Question:WILL-POWER

I’m dieting again, does it show?
Is my face suffused with a righteous glow?
Above my head do you see a ring?
That’s my gold halo
For suffering.
A sainthood is the next thing they’ll bestow.

Don’t offer me
a sticky cake.
Don’t offer me
some sweets.
I can positively
absolutely
refuse
temptation’s treats.

I’ve a will-power of iron
You can’t tempt me, I won’t budge.

Oh, well if you really must insist
I’ll have one last square of fudge.
Such a shame to throw it away
I’ll start my diet another day.

“Has anyone seen my box of Cadbury’s Milk Tray?”

Ah food for thought!
I think I ought
after eating my lunch
right after brunch
ingest your words
one by one
this might just stop me
from scoffing the bun

please give me another
slice of your prose
may help me diet
who knows?
