at this sweet soft morsel
and it stares straight back at me
i should look away
but…
i’m not gonna
my ravenous mouth waters
at the thought
so satisfying
my eyes can no longer stand this staring contest
my hands swipe
my mouth cheers
rolling it around my tongue
i savor every last drop
as it melts away
and slips down my throat
down deep
into the bowels of my soul
into the giant caverns
and there
instead of filling the emptiness
it only continues to erode away
at the crumbling walls
i double over
and fall
tearing at my chest
cursing myself
for not looking away…

maybe then I would have seen You
trying to warn me
