depleting ...hoarding
spark earth's blazing fury
running on empty

Unbearable sun
Ant granaries set hoarding 
Beach-side, a haven

Scorching July heat
Camel's skin and fat melted 
Yet your love intact...

Darn covid has most surely created,
toilet rolls as the product predated,
and I reached my goals;
hoarded two hundred rolls,
but suffer from being constipated....

Old Jonathan Winters
Would have you in splinters
His one-line feeder,
"Take me to your leader!"
Made you record-hoarding,
"This is a recording!"
It was like a toddy
"All over my body!"...

Money
Creates power.
Buying, selling, hoarding
Society then destroyed by
Wealth.

Suffered Hunger
  
twisting hunger pain 
hides food under the bed and
between the mattress
hoarding food afraid of not
getting enough food to eat

Hairy little rodent,
Happily nibbling seeds.
Hungry, he stuffs his cheeks,
Hoarding food for later.
Having rested all day,
He now proceeds to play.
Hear him now on his wheel.

Hoarding is hiding making hard findings.It’s a consumer binding it’s wrong always hiding.Everything on this world is opened and easy reaching.Hoarding is causing
hardships and against the way of friendship!...

I can dress up like a pirate
in a hat, an eye patch
a peg leg and a hook for a left hand
settling on an island paradise
drinking coconut water and hoarding gold
while still having a mermaid as my best friend...

The world’s mine to obtain;
I will firmly grasp all of the treasures it holds.
The world’s mine to obtain,
full of living toys existing to entertain.
Overflowing with precious gems, silvers, and golds,
my safe to store everything ‘til it rots and molds.
The world’s mine to obtain....

My home is filled with degrading losses. 
Instruments that I didn't learn to play. 
Seeds that abortive to spring up
Backyard hot tub is now stage.
Books bought but never read,
Plants that perished
Dreadful seats
And me.
Trite

If time were just a thing to save,
At last, when life is ending,
We’d have a bank of empty days—
No equity to show.

Instead of hoarding till our grave
That which we should be spending,
Invest it well in useful ways—
Observe the interest grow!

I'm traveling
for a cause 
driven
working
I'm talking 
all day
I'm learning
seeking new solutions
I'm looking forward
hoarding education
smiling at new families
making a difference
I'll go  just so far and then my heartstrings
will pull me
back home
and I'll stay until I'm calm
and go back out....

It was a year ago today
  we plain folk lost our say
our lives restricted 
  in so many ways

Couldn't go to work or see a show
  almost nowhere we could go
Shopping at super-stores our recreation 
  Toilet paper hoarding, our avocation

One year later
  things look better
COVID's memorial
  ~ five scarlet letters...

my pet peeve is 
selfishness
taking it all
not sharing
hoarding
being greedy
squirreling it away
in a mean way
letting it rot
not caring 
that others don not have
Not caring that many
starved or went without
because your goal
was to have more than enough
for yourself
so now you gloat
you have won
But have you?...

Southern Hemisphere
Northern Hemisphere
Like sleeping companions tugging the suns warmth from each other
One hoarding it, one exposed
And leaves quivering like exposed limbs
Until the trees jettison them like paratroopers
Each one swings in the currents chilly
As if held by an oscillating string 
A succession of falling pendulums...

Spendthrift...Skinflint

                              spendthrift
                       extravagant, wasteful
                  buying, shopping, squandering
               presents, parcels, deposits, interest, 
                    counting, banking, hoarding
                            tightfisted, miserly
                                    skinflint...

Mitosis
movements
wrap together in
pulsing conduits
of vibrant vigor 
to nudge
the prod of
creation

until all
division lines
fold down to
ampersands
welcoming
liberated
hands
operating
in unison

despite all
individualistic
instincts sordidly
hoarding for
dominion of
identity

denying
the swirling
dependencies
holding all
bodies in
godly
orbit....
