Feeding Frenzy

New poem posted
An instant feeding frenzy
Hunger is appeased

Tasty word morsels
Relief from the gnawing pain
Poets get their fix

Eyes searching for names
Trembling hearts wait to shoot up
Psychedelic dreams

Words course through my veins
On a never ending high
Addicted to you…..

I can relate as well. I often wonder how so much time is devoured.

:) Yes....way too much, but it feels a need so.....for now....I'm stuck. When I'm stronger, maybe I'll be on less. Take care, Richard. Your poems are tasty morsels indeed. :)
