Short Starves Poems

My delicious feast
Appetizer, entrée, dessert
A bony child starves...

Craves, she craves
Reaction, hunger.
When all is stale, 
She starves....

thoughts of wishbone soup
overshadows all that starves
mind heartily set...

goodwill
starves at mental
dissonance of hungry
charity ringer who takes some
dollars...

Hurry
those late
go hungry

when bees
are busy
fear not
or one starves.

Mountains Valleys and Streams
Haiku
 
Wintertime is cold
Claims sponsorship over all
Wildlife starves for months!...

Lust for famed glory of gold
Tossed lofty hubris for forlorn dole
Soul after soul, starves and beggars
Hither and thither for tragedy’s own mourn...

I am a Father
A father of two
One an Angel,
The other an Imp (devil).

The Angel starves
And is waxed lean
But  every second, the imp fattens
Feasting on my violence....

Oh Lord help this heart of mine
For it was broken and there seems no mend
I have bid my love farewell
But my heart cannot find peace without him

My Soul...............

It starves....

So Sleek Wearing Scarves

She seems sleek while wearing scarves,
And then herself to death often starves;
Learned as of late,
Would lose weight;
Uses knife and from her body fat carves.

Wife starves
earnestly, for her
partner to
return home;

"A hooker"
captivates him
dexterously.

Quiet Despair 

In a besieged town
In Syria
Snow falls 
People starves
Children die 
We are powerless 
 Against
Those who are 
Wrong
And those who are right
Snow falls
Silently on
Quiet despair 
I think of
Leningrad...

Thrilled

she squealed

fear weaving

bark in her face

munched on robbed dog food

of one wealthy

as she starves

she's poor

kneeled

The letter K is still hereunto haunting my own aching heart:
One died; one starves; one grieves; one ignores; one texts; one goes hardly seen.
Sadly, the memories of my first love haunt me most of all.

How do we say “we” across the ages,
we jigsaw-pieces of a human fate?
As this man hoards, that one starves or rages.
How do we say “we” across the ages
of a history stumbling through its stages?
Here we are at eternity’s sheer gate,
trying to say “we” across the ages – 
we jigsaw-pieces of a human fate....

Love is a passion
                         it burns deep within
                         it starves you from reality
                         it strips your soul bare
                         a hunger for attention to salvage our needs
                         a sweet surrender it can bring you to your knees......

Nobody drowns in the Water of Life 
No one starves eating fruit from the Tree of Life
The Light will be a candle in my darkest hour
A stream of Water when I thirst for peace
Bread when I hunger for hope
The Light will be a lamp in my darkest hour
And a Friend when all seems lost

A contemptuous shimmer in his eye.

His body coils along the trunk.
 
An empty stomach fuelled only by anger.

Looming ominously from the sky.

He hangs from the branch,
lolling, staring, waiting.

Waiting for a victim
to constrict and inflict.

He stares.

He waits.

He starves.

Too late?

No. Not today....

Here is the problem,
this is what I see,
I was alone,
about to do me,
then you reached out 
and dragged your claws across me,
when you had your fill,
you threw me out, said was free,
but my heart starves,
so how can that be,
you left in me a poison
that burns don't you see
and now I'm alone,
but will never be free....

rice burn 
and soak 
sun rise 
souls cry 
beg for mercy 
says the hot dog 
guy 

homeless collect beer heavy cans 

yards away rich collect 
fine wine 
Oh,
do they dine 

better wipe your face 

Oh baby 
get me high 
stroke my back,
dive into my plain 

Tuesday, 
nothing will change 

week by week
let my brain 
deplete 

I'm low on the food chain,
but he who starves 
will always eat...

Daring people with an imperfection in their stars 
I was hit back by jerks who left me with many scars. 
They are often harmed as a piece of their giving regards
I had no idea they are used to look for power and starves. 
These disastrous people are without snobs. 
You'll always be unable to haul them out of their snarls.

Waraments

We must face a crisis that is of our making
Arming countries whilst it citizens starves
Remember greed is a hunger we can't feed
Ammunitions serves no purpose if no wars
Maybe peace can exist, not if there's greed
Each day another country begins a conflict
Nothing new there but at expense of it own
Today greed is tomorrow hunger we'll feed
So let start today cease the armament sale...

fiery skies rage black
the dawn's light will never come
ash falls from death's cloud

wild beasts devour seed
the dry earth starves her children
thunder is our cries

rivers flow crimson
the moon drips blood from her wounds
earth trembles from fear

battle swords are drawn
cowards flee to hills and caves
destruction finds all

stay away from the water deep,
our great white shark thinks i'm nice n sweet, 
the terror of the deep n wide,
perhaps relate to suicide,
on the west coast the widows weep,
around ol Perth swift death does sweep,
to just be bit in halves,
by a monster shark that starves,
great monster of the deep...
