The beast is hungry With an unrelenting appetite Consuming without satisfaction This glutenous swine gnashes and gnaws Leaves no morsels Only memories Snatching the very youth from your face And the minds from those who gave you yours Extruding your very essence whilst you slumber Feeds on good times And takes exquisite pleasure In dragging out moments of suffering Yet this beast is desired by all Pursued without hesitation Those with wealth and power may never obtain Those who need it never posses Those who posses may not use And in the end, leaves you, alone in a void Nothing but a fleeting thought In those who are still being devoured alive -R
