I am Hungry

I am hungry

Your jelly-black eyes stare at me with scorn

If only they gave me some corn!

Red velvet lips part in anger

Yet, are wished together by coriander

Apple pie high in the sky hopes 

Now that makes my tummy rumble!

Your flared nostrils

A nosey piece of frosting banished to the graveyard

Once called my stomach

Years do not add on to ears

Delicate, yet incredibly strong 

They can never go wrong!

I am hungry

And hungry poets make no sense

Or nonsense

Will it be weird if I told you

I see our tongues 

Wrapped within our lips

Dancing on a twilight night?

Hungry people make no sense bud! In general. Because, well, when you're hungry, you think from your tummy,so!
It was a fun read. Very different. Very intelligent.
Thanks for sharing it!

But in all seriousness, hunger is a serious business! Hope your writing is going well, Ishita! And thank you for dropping by :)

Make sense, reading the last stanza. Very good, Tks, strange but reallyh good poem. :) Rudi

[Tks]

Good to hear from you as always, Rudi :) It is a strange poem indeed, as hunger does tend to have a habit of playing with all 5 of my senses, instead of merely one! :) thank you for the kind review! I'll be catching up on your work soon!

[Rudi J.P. Lejaeghere]

You're welcome. :) Rudi
