“a bite”




Opened my mouth
Beastly growl of hunger
So ready of feasting
See only sideways,
With eyes wide tensed
Veins break facets
They breathe to feed too
Pulled skin so tight
Grab firmly prey
String it freshly cut
On the sharp
Teeth
Masticate the might—
Eat the pain
Teeth lengthen like knives—long
Cutting deep
Into the thigh
Of life
Liquid spews far
And, the fibers snap
Acidic saliva fizzles
To devour
Melt languishing
Ghoul of thoughts
Consume
Life

“a bite”




Open my mouth
Beast of growls—of hunger
Poised to feast
Strain a glance
With eyes wide tensed
Veins break facets,
Aching to feed
Pulling skin so tight
Grasping firm … prey
String it freshly cut
On the sharp
Teeth
Masticate the might,
The shrills of hate
Eat this pain
Teeth lengthen like knives—long
Cutting deep
Into the thighs
Of life
Liquids spew and drizzle
And, the fibers snap
Acrid saliva fizzles
To devour—melt
Languishing
Ghouls of thought
Consume
Life's despair

Well that's one way to describe a flesh wound! Being ravenous will make you take an enormous helping. Unique take on despair.
