Tod tugged at her arm. ‘Something odd over here Brit,’ he said. She followed. Behind a rock, a puddle of sparkling blue and pink lights shone. ‘It’s like Northern Lights caught in the ice,’ she said. ‘Have you ever seen anything like this?’ She had a #hunger for an answer #vss365

When #hunger strikes, Banhi goes through three phases:
1. Confident that it's mealtime, meowing for attention
2. Terrorising everyone and wrecking things because it is not yet mealtime
3. Acting his cutest, most adorable self until he finally gets his food

There was a deep #hunger inside the massive red dragon. But not for gold! No, he was hungry...for feedback! Constructive criticism! #vss365 #fantasy #writesky #microfiction

When the rabid #hunger seized half of us all at once, at first there was an eerie calm. As always there were those seeking to #inflict pain and suffering. They began to #announce the #location of those of us who were now to be hunted. And the feeding frenzy commenced.

This #hunger for letters, #words,
nouns, adjectives, verbs.
#Reading, reading, #writing, writing.
I suck and slurp the #language in,
Tap, tap, tap, drum it out.
My mind devours and devours.....

apple orchard
my heart's hunger a basket
trees fill with their hands

gathering hope's fruit
after seasons of waiting
joy, joy, and more joy

My skin feels too tight on my body; I bend my limbs, it stretches over my bones, thins out, squeaks like a rubbed balloon.

I’ve known #hunger.

It will end, it always does.

We’ll find a way.

All of us. Together.

No one will be lost.

The wolves are at the door, but we won’t let them in.

She plays the song on repeat; purposefully so, this way, the song lasts longer.

It doesn't matter if the kitchen lights are off; her eyes are closed anyway.

The Kettle ticks as it cools.

Ian Curtis has been dead longer than she's been alive, and still his #Hunger fills the room.

He pokes at the fire with a blackened stick. As it flares, the cavern's gloom drops back a moment.

"Hunger," he says, "oh she's cruel, but she's got her ways round her. You do a deal with #hunger, to a point. Peelings, crumbs, and grovel through another day."

"Thirst, now. She's a bitch."

In 1847, I survived starvation and freezing cold the only way possible. Now, two hundred years later, I’m still surviving. The #hunger reappears on the anniversary of that first forbidden mouthful, and I can abstain and die or eat and live. The choice is tortuously easy.

I sit and watch
the world rolls past me
grooves form, people follow
#hunger drives them
I sit and watch
seeing things dropped
whittled away and scorned
for faster passage
I sit and watch
the gears turn now
swiftly following
grooves guiding
I sit and watch

Mommy, I #hunger. I hunger for all the world and the sun and the birds that nest outside my window and the books on the shelves in the library and the nice librarians you tell me about who pick my books, such good books. And Mommy, I hunger for the marrow in your bones. #vss365 (hunger)

The sun rises & sets. Never caring what happens in between. Neither do the moon or the stars. The same could be said for the trillions of creatures we live with

Except for the #hunger. The one thing that drives us

The tree had a #hunger, so he sunk his roots deep and drew everything in. The forest around him turned dry and brown, the crack of falling branches filled the air, but he still wanted more. By the time the Little People's fields turned to dust he was ten thousand feet tall and still eating.

we hunger
the flower breathes
