A loaf of sweet lump,
Layered with cream and sprangles
Carried in a bash,
Gave us joy and happiness
As we devour in one bite!

After Blake

O snail thou art a thief!
Why dost thou devour
My daisies by night,
Then by day, 
Curl-up in thy house,
And sleep,
Well out of sight.

The bad hour,
Mud shower,
Petal sour,
Dead Flower,
Devour.

Rotten, cold.
All this mold,
Roots, take hold.

My ego deflated by your gaze
Who could survive the blaze
Of fire that gushes out..

Because They Could

How I miss you
at night
when the stars
come out to play
the good sleep
and evil wakes
from the enveloping dread
rises a mushroom cloud
to devour us.

Shred and devour
Marking time
By the hour
Crunching, munching
On my soul
Til bit by bit
There is a hole
Where once I lay
Pure and whole

Some say this pie is criminal,
mozzarella drenched with pineapple; 
Pizza to devour or throw 
euphoric or a waste of dough; 
Two palates, one robust battle.

Premium Member Passionate

Writing makes my blood boil,
hard emotions soften, I devour
each word. It is nourishment
for the soul. Like food for the
body, without the written
word I would starve.

Burn Me Bright - Sflu Rm

Burn me bright, let your flame devour me 
Let me melt in the douse of ecstasy 
Like a candle kissed by your glow 
Only your heat can make my blood flow

Pretty smiles
Deceitful laughs
Unanswered cries
Lonely days

Fairytales don’t come true
Liars prey on soft hearts
And they seek to devour you.
