The Downside | Judy Moskowitz

Will you feel satisfied
when your belly is full
savoring the juices
swirling around in your mouth
as it coats your tongue in lust
for ambition has a taste
as sumptuous as Prime rib
and Caviar
desire begins to take over
as your primary driver
you don’t see the red lights
blinded by shiny objects
fast cars and seductive fruit
ripe and ready
willing to sacrifice all that matters
wrapped in flesh and bone
