Glutton


I am a desperate lover


Needing every piece every-time


Don't confuse desperation with being needy


It's much more serious


Desperation causes one to seek without ceasing that which is wanted


Desperation is bold and concise never pitiful and teary eyed


Desperation can lie until the truth believes


Desperation can’t cling to parts... it desires wholes and will crawl on hands and knees until they bleed seeking that which is desired...


Through the fire


Facing the chastising of the proud


Through the drought


Enduring the loss of image


Desperation is very slow to give in


And again is a verb tattooed on the heart because desperation is never satisfied...


Understand me...


I am a desperate lover...


Once my sights are set on you... you will be satisfied

But I never will be


You will be exhausted trying to please me

But you will be well pleased.


You will feed all of my hungers yet I will starve ...No matter how much you give... I will be a glutton who lives for more of you... My lover...


I will be your best and your last…


Desperation does not let go...

Open the cold dead hand of desperation and in it you will find hearts.



Who loses in this exchange? Well of course I do darling... I always will.
