| Poor George! | |

A poem about the dangers of gluttony! So watch out! (I am also submitting this for the Seven Deadly Sins topic of the Lazy Writer's Forum. Another late entry from the Laziest Writer in the Land!) George gorged himself on chocolate, He ate one thousand sweets, He sucked a hundred lollipops, Oh yes! All kinds of treats! But then it was too late for George, His clock began to tick, There was nothing for it, But to call a dentist – quick! He lay down in the dentist’s chair as the man surveyed his teeth, And he couldn’t help but dream about what he’d give to chew a sweet. “I see the problem clearly, and I know what must be done.” As the dentist leant over George, he said, “Now I shall have some fun!” “I’ll do a quick extraction! I’ll have all the rotters out!” Poor George! Oh dear! My goodness! How the poor lad did shout! But soon the dentist got to work, His efforts not in vein, He had to keep George still though, As he railed against the pain. Soon it was all over, My how George did whoop! Things are so much better, Now that all George can eat is soup!
