Made me a mad dog!

The ear of the world is before me,
    I will whisper to it softly,
        of hunger and peace and many things.

With a hunger 
That has never

He keeps coming 
Back for more.

Not ever enough.

When taken ill beyond the Gods
(For their hunger feels so endless)

I saw their hillsides-
Grazed to the ground

I found no witness.
