  He tries to filll the void he feels with food but he's become frustrated with it since it doesn't work but he thinks that maybe he just doesn't eat enough even though deep down he knows it won't make any difference how much he eats.

Gluttony


A table full
Drinks as many as 100,
Deserts of all sizes,
Appetizers numerous
And main courses
All the more;

All scattered
On a table that could fit
More then 900 guests;

But where?
Where are the chairs?
Where are the plates?
Where are the spoons?
Where are the knives?
Where are the forks?

There’s only 1 set.
,,More…”
He speaks after finishing his drink
,,I said more, it’s not enough!”
A shaking person,
All skin and bones,
Looks up from down
At the youth
That sits alone
At the massive table.

He looks up fearfully
And in silent voice asks:
,,How much more
Will it take to appease
your hunger?”

Black wings dirty of crumbs,
Moved slightly
at the question,
Honey like eyes,
Stared cold down:
,,Till I forget…
Or till I don’t feel it..
Till this void vanishes.
NOW GO AND BRING MORE!”
