One Question,Too Many

Was 
it 
that 
cold?
Was 
the 
frost 
biting?
Where 
you 
that 
hungry
That 
you 
decided 
to 
dive
Into 
that 
dish 
without 
a 
second 
thought?
Did 
yoy 
just 
walk 
upon 
these 
thorns 
without 
your 
shoes 
on?
Chasing 
the 
ice 
cream 
man 
on 
the
Dusty 
streets 
without 
your 
clothes 
on,
Really?
Did 
you 
even 
consider 
the 
manacing 
taxi 
drivers 
hurling 
insults 
at 
pedestrians.
Screeching 
and 
speeding?
Did 
you 
shove 
your 
finger 
into 
a 
gnat 
house?
I 
saw 
you 
cleaving 
onto 
something,
Was 
it 
a 
beehive?
I 
see 
the 
bees 
turning 
your 
body 
Into 
their 
playground,
When 
you're 
done 
licking 
those 
fingers,
Dripping 
with 
sweet 
and 
sweat.
Did 
you 
or 
did 
you 
not?
