my skin cries out for you
a #hunger, a need
that only your hand can feed

outside the bar
I see my neon reflection
in the glass window
and think,

“Look at me -
all heartbeat and #hunger.
What a fucking loser!“

#vss365 #stanza
While being jailed in
a vast deserted region
without escaping or hope
access to water or food
Clouds refused gifting rain
Ground swallowed bleeding grain
Silence destroyed guilty brain
It's not #hunger or thirst
that locked hopes at night
of any last cruel days

A hunger from 2018 resurfaced. 🙂

An appetite born in shame devours #hunger before taste becomes her own.

flesh shifting to fur
hungering lycanthrope leers
forms caped in crimson
moon discs bleeding from within
it laps the pooling craters

A past #hunger resurfaced.

You hunger for innocence
devouring hearts.

‘It’s hard going grocery shopping with this #hunger in my belly. Everything looks good.’

‘Well, you know I don’t like ultra-processed foods made with who knows what.’

‘Right. Natural foods. Natural processes.’

‘What kind of cheese looks good?’

‘How about EDAM? It’s made backwards.’

"This city is special. It has its own heartbeat that drives a fierce #hunger."
"Because of our #location."
"Yes, this churning city.'
"There's a place across the street that fans its kitchen fumes into the air."
"I was being metaphorical."
"Want to get a burger?"
"Of course I do."

Quiet on the edge
The clique is busy laughing
Hunger to belong

He feeds a primal hunger
which never ebbs or slows;
the shop of the hate-monger
never needs to close.

#hunger

barely fleshed bones hearthed
reveal emptiness of others
hunger of the aged

My wife missed the kitties so much while in India for work that she’s been working in the garage to be near them. The mother cat brought her a lizard. Then a bird. She does work hard. Pixel probably intuited her hunger.

Here are the kitties after sharing the bird with their mom.

My #hunger was great. So I ate a memory of my first girlfriend‘s kitchen.

It tasted like linoleum, steam and the smell of something that might have been love.

Still hungry, I ate a poem like this one.

It tasted like crap.

"When you're feeling low and the #hunger strikes, reach for all new Crack Snikkers, the only candy bar fortified with the delicious power of crack. Keep the momentum going and save the day!"

"The hot new thing in the corporate world? #Hunger management classes. Because when an teammate is eating, the teammate isn't working."
