Man's Hunger
Since the beginning,
man has had an appetite
for woman
for pleasure
for all things carnal
Is it with the beauty
of woman
that he satisfies
the hunger,
or is it with love
of the woman
that the hunger
subsides?
I say neither.
For man is never
satisfied.
As love develops,
so does the hunger
increase ten-fold.
As beauty is apparent,
the want, the hunger
increases as much
as well.
With that,
it is my conclusion,
that man should then
look only for love.
For in time,
visual beauty can fade,
but love,
that can last forever,
leaving the one
you are in love with,
a true beauty.
