These Keys

Placing my warm fingertips 
I stroke with energy 
Feverishly hungry to consume
The black and white colored keys

I eat them with satisfaction
Unable to get enough in me
I think of words multisyllabic 
Swallow them easily 

Hearing the typing 
I cannot express 
Melodically bouncing off my ears
Heart beating in my chest

Sitting Indian style pecking
Pecking away at these keys
Is something that's most beautiful 
As I write what I please
