Poem: Eating Loneliness
My poetic debut, Eating Loneliness. Drafted in apporoximitely 20 minutes on 9th November.
Alone with the ceiling,
Friends left for a higher calling,
Leaving me to tend to my feelings,
Wasn’t it me who exclaimed “even karipaps have feeling?”
Even so I’ve consumed them with a relentless fury,
When greed takes over, all concern goes under,
No thoughts for the starving vagrant over yonder,
Nor the the scavenging bird grounded by merciless rain.
