I think this is a clever entry for the deadly sins contest. I wouldn't even have thought to write humor!
I love the title. And the last two lines are funny and sum up your point!

I think the first rule in any diet is to believe that you can do it and then you can move forward. There is so much obesity in the western world and it is choking everyone, but it is never too late to make a change, a fun poem about Gluttony, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

Your rhyming couplets depict one just as you say. I enjoyed reading your contest entry, Mystery Writer. It was fun but still a bit serious. I do like all of the example you gave. Your picture is a good choice, too. Why does everything that tastes so great have to be so bad for you?
Check the spelling of 'gluttojn'-->glutton
Thanks for sharing and best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan

A very well-written poem about the deadly sin Gluttony that means we eat everything we can lay our hands on not because we are hungry but because we enjoy to eat no matter how fat we are getting.

LOL - your last two lines got me spluttering my tea!
This is funny - I do enjoy light hearted reads.
Fun and well presented rhymed couplets.
Good luck in the voting booth.
Best wishes, Debra :)

This is a good write for the deadly sins contest. I can relate and often berate myself for the way I eat. I like that you could put humor to this. I don't think I could.

Dear Mystery Writer,

So, besides being a glutton, you're also rude. *smile*

Welllll... I mean, everybody's gotta be something, right? At least you admit your faults. That's a step in the right direction.

Good luck! (In everything.) ha

LOL (or yuck)!! :) ;) A fun collection of rhyming couplets for this contest! :) You definitely have some strong rhymes here, however, it is difficult to truly read through without starts/stops as the flow is quite 'bumpy'... You have the perfect pic there! ;) Thanx for sharing and best of luck! ;)

This is a cute, humorous poem. I think it could be improved if each line was a little longer. The end rhymes are good, especially the last one, but the lines seem too abrupt somehow. That said I enjoyed reading it. The picture looks like me since lockdown.
