Honey, I miss you
Worry not my appetites
Sue at beck and call.
My needs are fast and few
Be well meted out by Sue...

Ted Fed the Crocs
There once was a man named Ted,
That wished to see the crocs fed.
They lined on the shore,
Appetites galore-
Too late to feed ducks, instead!...

The modernization of Shakespeare plays
          'theater' for the unversed
  
      Catering to narrow appetites
          increases their bloody thirst...

The Vatican can't be sued
No matter how crude or rude

Sight See
Had she and I whet our appetites 
discretely we'd not need to leave lights 
on while we two commit 
what, I have to admit, 
is one of the biggest tourist sights....

Great Danes
Great danes are majestic large dogs,
big enough to keep in a stall,
pony like heights,
huge appetites,
can't afford one they eat like a hog.

Tonight, tables took teapots
"Lumiere Lights" lit
Pleasantly, people pondered 
Plates placed
Across appetites awaiting anxiously
To try the Top Ten

Premium Member Boa Constrictor and Anaconda
Boa, Constrictor and Anaconda were out on a slither.
They saw some animals up ahead, yonder, some hither.
I’ll get the baby.
I’ll get the hayseed.
With greedy appetites all three snakes were a quiver....

LUST


Oh lust,
How many times will you
Trick a man 
A piece of his soul to
Trade, 
Just to delight his insatiable 
Appetites 
Without ever being able to make
Them fade?

Appetites In Eating Or Sleeping
APPETITES  IN   EATING  OR  SLEEPING


My rabbit at home is  called Bubble

Her appetites  cause  her  some trouble  

At night with her   buck          

She  loves  a good . . . . . . . duck  

In one month her food  bill  can  double...

Dance
An eddy of dry leaves,
Dancing in the wind 
The dance of death,
Moves to mulch. 
I've seen this falling,
Mr. Eliot, and would say
September is the cruelest month,
Making supper for Spring
Out of lives that must give way
To future appetites....

Red Pepper
Red pepper is a kind fire
burning without flames
causing eyes to rain without clouds
sitting on own cool hot  stool
never causing wild bush-fire
giving suckling babies hot raw deals
but raising appetites of celebrants
cruel in hands of enemies...

Back Contorted
On the contorted back
Of Africa in tearful neglect
Based buttocks
The stoic, obese and always full
Of odd appetites

Pain in the back
Of Africa in tears
Centuries are mange
Here and there, scattered
Oh God, I deplore:
- I got tired of this shame!...

Premium Member Like Starving Lions
Like a pride of starving lions,

lust's uncontrollable appetites fell upon the

herd of tamed virtues 

devouring them to the last

leaving behind only the carcasses

of lofty ideals

for

evil's scavengers to feast!

Soup, salad – appetizers
  Cookies, cake – desserts

Appetizers to whet our appetites
   Desserts to satisfy them

But what if we served desserts first
  After the entrée, would we still
    have room for appetizers… 

Dispense with the appetizers
  There’s always room for desserts...

Premium Member The Lady of the Night


                           There once was a lady of the night
                             wearing dresses short and tight
                                  she coaxed her johns
                              showing a titillating thong
                               whetting their appetites.

The Oscars
A star is born while a soul is torn on the Hollywood walk of fame,
With dreams that matter or a life that's shattered in slabs of pavement pain,
For some it's to much and others never enough were falling stars are drained,
Ferocious appetites will consume for a life that may ruin them on the Hollywood walk of fame....

Death
They killed him
And dug a pit to bury the body
Unaware of a pack of wolves waiting
In the cavity of woods; their eyes burning
In passion for live food;earth soaking
The smell of blood, some wafting
To the swelled nostrils
whipping atavistic appetites
in all who were awake
In this chill.

The dead man sleeps....

Maslow Hierarchy
The body’s needs are few
Maslow got it right
Air, food, and water
Nourishment, reproduction for life

When all needs are quenched
And the stomach is full
Why is the drive still so alive?
Why do we do what we do?

Is that why I crave?
Is that why I’m on fire?
Insatiable are the appetites
Evolutionary desires...

Private Drive
Moonshine drapes
 laundered white
  wetting two
   raw appetites
Petite niblets
 morsels of feast
  captured by
   rocking beast
Flash of light
 off window pane
Motherhood tattoo
 nary a shame
Tepid buttermilk
 readied sup
  served in flowered
   demitasse cup
Perched on haunches
 shutter release
Private drive
 now restful peace...

With Grace
"with grace"

as a merry go round you circle between love around
moving crystal whites quenching romantic appetites
artistry showing rebirth of life with the sun rising
turning golden sands into a resort for seagulls found
completing a spin of vibrant colors that live within
with grace a new carousel circles beautifully in place

Sexy Suicide
The stores sold foods with pesticides
till everyone got sick.
And now the cancer's so damn bad
that everyone dies quick.

And even though we're pressed for time
we'll never give up sex.
Cause every time we go to do
our hormones rage complex.

And now that sex is even better
since death is coming soon.
We owe our sexy suicide
to appetites that spoon....

The Feast
Tongue soaked in tasty red
Painful water; it blots the bed
Vampires are at feast
Doom strikes whoever sucks least

Bursted veins, brawled roars
Shattered windows paving soars
Of beasts; two dead couples lays
Tickling death in its night rays

Hunger exhumes lost appetites 
Like woods to termites
Carcasses left for vultures
It was a night of less surfeit pleasures!...
