Feed.
Write whatever comes to mind from the word feed. Poetry or just a story.
The never-ending feast...
The beast within
way deep inside
my Dr. Jekyll
and Mr. Hyde
on what does
this beast feed
what does it crave
what does it need?
What is the ugly
dark thing I find
in the corners
of my mind
tickling the surface
of my dreams
haunting me
nothing as it seems
the phantom of my nightmares
awake in a cold sweat
heart beating in my ears
no peace can I get.
Is it sickly
and wasting away
absent as the night
when dawns the day?
Or is it obese
from its gluttonous feed
slovenly gorging
on my bottomless need?
