Best Consumed Poems
Consumed By Shadows
Are we truly masters of our own destiny
Or are we lost, left slipping on the edge of fate
Bloody and bruised knuckles just trying for dear life to hang on
Constantly we deny our own existence
Letting the past consume us, as we dwell on hate
Love all...

ConsumedHe touched me
Touched me the way no man had before
His hands held my body
While his eyes held my soul
He opened me to his world
A world of passion and affection
Full of love, consuming my mind
Attending to my every want
He fulfilled my senses and became my need...

ConsumedI feel the agony
Crawling up my legs
Gnawing at my arms
Ripping into me
Trying to take over
I fight and fight
Till the pain grows
Never stopping as it eats away at me
Ripping through me.
Many might believe
It’s simple to be consumed
that it’s quick and painless
but I...

Until I'M ConsumedLet the words I speak
Be unto you
Let the one I seek
Be only you
And let my heart beat
Beat for you
And let my soul
Burn for you
Til I'm consumed
Until I'm consumed
.
Won't you take all of me
Until your image in me
is all you see
But...

Lyric
ConsumedVenom drips from his tongue in honeyed splendor
He mesmerizes his audience with a Cobratic symphony
Slithering under their high expectations
He possesses a patient elegance
Skills learned in an ancient garden
His invitation so enticing
They are the unsuspecting mice
Gobbling up snow colored treats
Imbedded in healthy labels
Glazed diabetic eyes
Look...

Pure Poetry Consumed SlowlyTwo portabella caps Stems removed deeply and diced.
Frills down in olive oil and butter (with stem pieces)
Pan hot
Flip to frills up
Fill with italian dressing and cheddar cheese
Fry covered at simmer
Steam spinach
Steam parsnips in buttered water
Saute two filet mignon wrapped in bacon
divide equally on...

Consumed With Each TouchShe was passion personified
With suicidal tendencies
One step from going over the edge
A lopsided smile with a twinkle in her eye
With just a hint sadness
She moved with the grace of an angel
Hearts fluttered as she walked by
Men intoxicated by her presence
A fight could break out...

ConsumedDescending,
I manipulate and manoeuvre for the updraft
Spluttering,
I spiral down, then briefly up again, to glimpse a glowing sky
Flapping,
I fall forever faster, flat-eagled
Plunging,
I watch the unwelcome gloom envelope my horizon

ConsumedThose totally consumed with self
don’t view the world through humane eyes.
Ambition is not wrong, they feel.
To strive to reach the top is wise.
True narcissism goes beyond
mere drive to have the best in life.
It smothers all esteem of others*
and blinds them to another’s strife.
For those who...

A Daily Consumed Society
A Daily Consumed Society
Man has changed and confused his principals.
What one day was culture, innocence and
shame, has degenerated into vulgarity, malice
and impurity.
What was a beautiful sentiment yesterday, of
warmth, comprehension and love, has converted
into coldness, intotolerance and hate.
Our children learn what they see. Throughout
their...

This World That TakesThis World That Takes
I gave too much.
A chalice filled to the brim,
pouring over,
love spilling, although unasked for,
but the world took it anyway.
It takes.
All it does is take.
It absorbs every light, every warmth,
leaving none to spare, none to return.
People—so consumed by their mirrors,
worshipping their own reflections.
Social...
