I feed the hollow, Hard, heavy pit within, Yet all that I swallow, Doesn't fill, doesn't **** Doesn't keep the feelings in. . But still I eat. Frenzied, fast: a furtive game, Mad dash, a clock to beat. To shove it down---dark and deep. All the guilt and all of the shame. . 'Til at last, how it aches Bloated, bleary. A greasy feast. A carnage of boxes of candy and cakes. But the void has been silenced. Numb now, this sleeping beast.

Feeding the Hollow
I feed the hollow, Hard, heavy pit within, Yet all that I swallow, Doesn't fill, doesn't **** Doesn't keep the feelings in. . But still I eat. Frenzied, fast: a furtive game, Mad dash, a clock to beat. To shove it down---dark and deep. All the guilt and all of the shame. . 'Til at last, how it aches Bloated, bleary. A greasy feast. A carnage of boxes of candy and cakes. But the void has been silenced. Numb now, this sleeping beast.
