Gnawing

I can’t outrun you,  
with last night’s dream on my lips;
A racing heartbeat 
breaking through a private wall,
your kiss is gnawing my gut.

Lost You

From when I lost you, and drove you away.

The gnawing guilt and regret,

I would love to forget.

this endless rain
pains
like an idle

gnawing away at sanity
grinding nerves
into digestible bits
this

A Gnawing Temptation-

 have a following in my heart of hearts;
caressing thoughts of temptation 
gnawing sin biting me

If Husband His Nails Gnawing Like Rabbit,

If  husband his nails gnawing like rabbit,
I show the way to quit nasty habit.
No point to  treat  poor husband  with  scoff
Just rip off his teeth, or nails his rip off !

When I See a Crowd On the Street

When I see a crowd on the street, noise and smell, 
Gnawing me the concern for this people: -
Is there enough room for them in the hell?
Is there enough oil, firewood, fire keepers?

The Longest Drive

a year feels like forty
a crack becomes a gaping hole
emptiness swallows
hatred fades to bitterness
memories lead to tears
avoidance becomes a gnawing ache
i hate that stretch of road

Barry the Beaver

If you think ants are busy, you should seek
Barry the beaver living down by Chesapeake
Gnawing down trees with every tooth in his head
Barry works twenty-four seven and will ‘til he’s dead.

Genuine Hypocrisy

... is a sticky, gooey mask
    that eats into
    the skin


... and flesh, quietly, slowly,
    gnawing at the bones
    and sinews


... of the wearer's
    hidden, real
    face!

Don'T Lose Control

...there is a hunger inside me that i cannot contain
its gnawing my insides....burning through my restraint
its a live-wired bomb waiting to explode
and destroy my life... my world..... my soul

Melt

I still feel a phantom caress,
a gnawing silent emptiness,
too strong to deny or even tame,
a nagging unquenchable flame.
It still burns but, it heats much less,
No ashes fall, mocking passionless.

Caress

I still feel a phantom caress
a gnawing, silent emptiness,
too strong to deny or even tame,
a nagging, unquenchable flame.
Though it still burns, it heats much less,
a sense still mocking, passionless.

Boss

Writhing patchwork
Vivified
With negative charge

Shirt-n-tie shoe-in
Lunch-n-punch reports
Control over who?

Crisp tailoring hides
Grisly quilt
Stitched of you

Alpha goat
Clip-clop
Over you

Alpha rat
Gnawing
On you

You

Where Pride Reigns

Pride reigns supreme in my country where a man would rather trail off to slumber with hunger gnawing at his entrails than be compelled to eat humble pie.

Kenya Kangaroo

Kenya kangaroo flying colorful kaleidoscope kite
gnawing nimble gnashy night crawlers on Nairobi’s night
enticing enthusiastic Englewood eagles, filling them with excite
making melodious music, merrymaking magic as they might

Love Is Actually a Mental Illness

Love is actually a mental illness
Bi-polar and life consuming
Breathes taken and eyes crying
until there is no more
Stabbing and gnawing pain in
the blackest darkest depths
until you are no more..
You are reborn anew..you

Muted

She had been stalked
Dark thoughts draped in silence
Ranting
Gnawing
Suckling
At the breast of doubt
Whimpering
In the shadowed suffering
Of idled indecision
Held hostage
By the blank page

I Had To

I am gnawing on the remains of my last meal
with tears in my eyes
It still tastes like you
It was full of your memories
I had to do it
I ate my soul
with the hope of becoming a mere shadow of you
Now all I have to do is wait

No Sleep

Instability, pain
Pain in my eyes at the bright light
Wanting sleep tonight
Sleep is ellusive again

So cold, and alone
Pain comes too regular now
Aches and grinding joints, 
Cramping, gnawing pain with shaking and weakness.

Of Anticipation

Anticipation is like
the gnawing of a
hungry squirrel that
cracks open a nut
with the outcome of 
a delighted squirrel
or a rotten nut.
