exactly 1pm
haven't had a bite
food across the tongue,
only teeth-marks that see
modest attempts
to devour the language
that haunts me,
demon english
why have you possessed
my frankenstein soul
and why have you cursed
my sensibilities for sustenance
surely you know I'm hungry
can't i get a piece of toast....?
a voice reminds me,
there are thousands of hungers
piece of toast
piece of toast
the death of empathy is the birth of barbarism
Re: piece of toast
Is this about writers' block? 'Cause I've hungered for the words, for the images and the ideas, and sometimes all I can do is just prattle on and on and on and on and hope that amidst all that sand a single pearl will fall out that I can start with the next day.....

Re: piece of toast
it's about writer's block sasha, but also the opposite of that when the words won't stop and your physical discomfort is immaterial to not breaking the stream of consciousness....both exist for me in the space most days
