Ch 03 On The Excellence Of Contentment Story 05
A man often made vows of repentance but broke them again till one of the sheikhs said to him: ‘I think thou art in the habit of eating a great deal and that thy power of restraining appetite is more slender than a hair, whilst an appetite such as thou nourishest would rupture a chain and a day may come when it will tear thee up.’
A man brought up a wolf’s whelp.
When it was brought up it tore him up.
Appetite comes with eating; the more one has, the more one would have.
Appetizers are the little things you keep eating until you lose your appetite.
Everything The Others Ate Had Been Great
When will I ever write 'something' you like?
Probably never.
Since you seek to have your appetite pleased...
And I will never cater to those who player hate.
'Who said I player hated? '
You had no problem eating,
Everything I prepared and dished upon your plate.
Until someone mentioned that I was the cook.
And everything the others ate had been great.
Up until 'then' you munched and grinned.
And then when my name was mentioned...
You proceeded to whip out,
A pad and pen!
'Who said I player hated?
I just happened to have lost my appetite.
It had nothing to do with you beaming,
Or the fact you appeared to block out my light! '

I Eat Therefore I Am
The medical profession
has not been kicking its heels.
Faced with a spreading obsession
with eating and an explosion
in obesity,
it offers a solution
of Cartesian simplicity.
SNACKING BETWEEN MEALS!
This reduces your appetite at mealtimes
and helps you compensate
by EATING your way to losing weight.
Today Cornmarket is full
of the well-insulated
with heads enturbulated
by nutritional dyslexia,
munching their way to anorexia.

""Sex"" is as important as eating or drinking and we ought to allow the one appetite to be satisfied with as little restraint or false modesty as the other.

A Guide to Eating Meat
Eating a little beef
Could cause a Hindu grief,
Eating too much chicken
Can make a person sicken,
Eating lots of lamb
Is preferable to Spam,
Eating a leg of pork
Won't make the neighbours talk,
But eating Mum and Dad
Is DEFINITELY BAD! !

Just as appetite comes by eating, so work brings inspiration, if inspiration is not discernible at the beginning.

Have Desire To Have
Have money,
Plenty of money,
or little money,
Have appetite,
Have no time,
we are hungry,
and then become angry.
Have appetite,
Burning appetite,
Churning appetite,
dizzy appetite.
Have appetite,
Have plenty of time, but
Have no money.
People are hungry,
and they are hungry as always.
Angry are hungry,
anger for better things,
Better fast food,
better service,
better facilities
Hungry people are angry,
anger for basic food,
Just to fill the pit,
that churns day and night,
not knowing,
What is available to a man.
Hunger is the turning point,
when insufficiency is pointed.
Hunger is an insult,
when inefficiency is noted.
Let us have the desire,
to have a better world,
where no human,
go and sleep with hungry.

I think that the appetite for mystery, the enthusiasm for that which we do not understand, is healthy and to be fostered. It is the same appetite which drives the best of true science, and it is an appetite which true science is best qualified to satisfy.

Basically, though, I believe in eating well, not eating too much but eating a variety of foods.

Vegetarian Mumbo Jumbo
I dont want tofu Id rather have a mouthful of beef stew I dont want
To be a vegetarian why eat beans when you can have steak insted?
I dont feel bad about eating something thats dead why should I be
Sad for cows getting hit in the head? so I like eating fish tell me whats
Wrong with this how can you blame me for eating chicken of the sea?
Dont waste your breath yelling at me about animal rights and how they
Should be free its survival of the fittest and were winning I dont feel
Bad about eating something thats dead why should I be sad for chickens
Being force fed so I like eating fish tell me whats wrong with this how can
You blame me for eating chicken of the sea?

Hard To Swallow
We eat to live
We eat to grow
We eat to endulge ourselves,
In the greatness of food
We eat to provide comfort
We eat to be accepted
We eat as it is part,
Of our lives
Food comes in all different forms,
Shapes and sizes
It can be a bean as small as a nail
Or a christmas turkey the size of a horse
Food is a necessity
Food is a way of life
Food is enjoyed
Food is loved
But for some,
Food is despised
Eating brings pain
Eating brings weight
Eating brings illness
Eating brings hate
Eating means endless pain
A pain that wont stop,
Until the food inside,
Is forced out
Eating means weight gain and hurt
So,
It's best not to eat at all
The aching pain of hunger drifts away,
With several ibuprofein.
The battle with food is a constant struggle
To overcome the eating disorder
To take one bite,
And Swallow!

My Appetite from My Emptiness
I got an appetite.
It's burning for everyone of you.
It matters.
It has to.
Gotta keep going.
Got deploy my own method to madness.
Yeah rewire this.
Think in a all of suddenness.
Just absolutely craziness.
Yeah I see bliss.
It sits on the other side.
As memories subside and become part of your life.
Then that knife slowly moves away from the rope.
No longer is the fall so high.
All pain subsides.
No longer a need to hide behind close doors and walls.
Boundaries no longer exist.
No longer a social outcast.
Acceptance of a eventuality.
It's not destiny.
It's fate.
Can anyone relate.
In the way in which this world I contemplate.
Everything is at stake.
Feeling every ache.
Here is your plate today.
Eat your fill or isn't real.
An emptiness.
An appetite.
Here's the deal.
I'm just a man.
Just like anyone.
Trying to live my life the best way I know how.
Trying to overcome my own doubts.
Writing for the understanding.
In this world I'm demanding.
Everything and anything.
From every taste, touch, feel.
With every new sensation.
I need another one.
Cause it only makes me feel a little more good.
Experimentation a man once said to me.
I believe that's true, but in a different sense.
There are certain occasion's where one must take a risk.
A chance to get hurt.
A chance to deliver a letter to someone not yet known.
Hello my friend.
Its nice to hear from you again.
How are you doing in that far away place?
How is your little escape going?
Listen to the release.
A heart felt emotion.
Slow is the commotion.
Peace and tranquility.
Look at how easy that is.
All because I got an appetite.
Eating it all up.
Please say tonight will never be my last.

It has long been known for sure that the sight of tasty food makes a hungry man's mouth water; also lack of appetite has always been regarded as an undesirable phenomenon, from which one might conclude that appetite is essentially linked with the process of digestion.
