Toilet paper is not food

Stop eating it- doesn't do you any good

It makes you constipated

Pica Syndrome's overrated

It's not something you can't beat

Yes, this too you will defeat

I know Angel Soft is really yummy

But it does horrors to your tummy

Chew on some gum instead

But don't swallow!

Your intestinal tract may clog up dead

Eating tissue makes you feel full inside

Stopping you from being hungry at normal times

This is dangerous- those fibers have no nourishment

You need real food to keep your body vibrant

You may feel full, but your body is lacking

Tissue can't keep disease from attacking

Surgery may be needed if you eat too much

Don't eat it at all!

It should not be your lunch

Don't eat it in a car

Don't eat it in a bar

Don't eat it in a jar that's very far

It tastes good, smells good, it's almost always there

Still the grinding on your teeth can land you in a dentist chair

Be good to your body- keep it far from your mouth

Only use it for transactions occurring south

Self-control is the key!

Let's be Pica Syndrome free!

I know the temptation will keep other thoughts retreating

But always remember!

Toilet paper is not for eating!
