Hunger Part 2

Posted on September 22, 2013 by Helen

Gnawing need
Beyond our choice
Sweet desire
Finds its voice
Given nourishment
We rejoice
Craving, hunger
Beyond our choice

Stomach tightens
Dragging need
Isn’t gluttony
Or even greed
From this hell we
Must be freed
Grasping hunger
Dragging need

    Do you ever find that more people Like Part 2 than Part 1? Just curious if this happens with anyone else. 🙂
