Starvation

Thoughts for the mind
Words for the heart
Yet my plate is empty
Starving for nourishment
That will never fill
A skelton


Empty

there is no food
on the space
which would have a plate
if they had a table
that would fit
in the house
that isn't there

In the wooden bowl
Persimmons on the table
Next to the fruit cake
Half eaten on a large plate
Leftover cheese and crackers

Little magic wands  
Stacked upon my plate 
Dare I salt?

Who lived on seaweed and rice.
But craved a plate of fried chicken;
Oh Yummy, I bet that tastes nice.

But instead got a red fox
He sent the plate back
