What is Gluttony?

I was laying down in bed,
craving carbs,
and what popped into my head was โ€˜streaming services,โ€™
that of Netflix, Hulu, SHOWTIME, yaโ€Šโ€”โ€ŠApple TV+
and, i thought, why do i show noโ€Šโ€”โ€Š(actually)โ€Šโ€”โ€Šinterest
in subscribing
to these modes / mediums of entertainment?
but i wonderโ€ฆ
but i propose?โ€Šโ€”โ€ŠAmericaningโ€Šโ€”โ€Šbinge-watching
itโ€™s consumptionโ€ฆ so i thought, this is/must be โ€œGLUTTONYโ€โ€ฆ
right?
itโ€™s Art,ย thoughโ€ฆ

by challenging my normal,
my normal train,
train of thought, conviction, etc.
is this a philosopher? โ€”

Can i watch a show and come up with new ways of creating?

I wonderโ€ฆ

Maybe, right now, iโ€™ll hop on Netflix, cook-up some carbs, lay down in bed,
and write something (k)new.

O no, i donโ€™t wanna getย fat.
