Just a Bite! Food for thought for the Holiday Season and Beyond

I told myself it's just a bite…
I'll just break off his head!
Besides, I thought, I'll be alright…
I don't care for gingerbread.

But, oh, that icing sleeve looked sweet
Maybe just an arm…
That's not even half of him!
What could be the harm?

Before too long his legs were gone
My restraint was at an end
Soon I ate his gum drop tummy…    And then I ate his friend.
