Anything!

Following orders, foreswearing crunch.
I had liquid breakfast and gooey lunch.
I lived a life by a la carte.
Gazed at plums with lust in my heart.
I won’t lie, the week’s been tough.
Dietary orders stunk.
I can now consume the rough.
I can eat all sorts of junk!
I can eat anything.
I can have celery that’s fresh.
I can eat anything.
I can graze and gnash.
Now’s the ever-loving time.
I can chomp or I can nibble.
I can eat beans off the vine.
Gorge my self on hippie kibble.
I can chew wheat germ nibs.
Gnaw the trim if I desire.
I can call bran muffin dibs.
I’m so unrestricted, I’m on fire.
I can eat anything!
Bleached flour was a bore.
I can startle Peter Cottontail.
Dine with him on all fours.
I’ll eat that gorp that bears can’t smell,
that they sell for when you camp.
I can gambol for a spell.
Request a dance with the standard lamp.
I’ll be all ‘twigs and berries’ style.
Have the kimchee I’ve craved so.
Steal grapes from the produce aisle,
‘till they say I have to go.
I can eat anything.
The world’s my oyster, the diet’s through.
I can eat anything.
Hey! I can have some oysters, too!
I can eat anything!
