Gluttony Of Love Poem by Ima Ryma

'If music be the food of love, '
'Play on, ' William Shakespeare did say
As opening line, speaking of
Yearn in 'Twelfth Night, ' his comic play.
It's a young duke in dialogue
Telling musicians to play on,
In hope he'll sicken as a hog
From gluttony phenomenon.
And then he'll lose his appetite
For loving a young woman who
Does not regard him with delight.
The young duke is feeling quite blue.

The young duke's love continued fed.
He and his lady became wed.
