Hunger

energy off the charts!
knees bobbing
hands shaking
eyes flying!
i cant hold still!
like the energizer bunny from hell!
like i got high
off an ADD pill!
feel like i could fly
no standing still!
only energy!
energy provided by my hunger!
when my stomach growls!
you better stand back!
cause ima pick up the slack!
and no one can keep up!
it may scare some
even scares me!
but those who dont flee,
are in for a sight!
the likes of which,
most wish,
that they could unsee!
