Hush child – lay your sweet lips on me
This greed – bigger than you and me
Will you come again
Body
Tongue tied and a visceral third degree
Feel warm – center of gravity
Wash us all away
Body never lies
Will you come again
Will we stay friends
Oh you paralyze
-Bush
Greed as hunger as lust as desire
I’m hungry again, awake and hungry
A predator on the loose
The prey elusive
But still, in plain view
I will chase you, hunt you, catch you
Just to smell your fear
Just to put my teeth on your skin
Just to taste your blood on my tongue
When you are here, when I have you
I will tear you apart, to see you inside
To eat you, feed my hunger
When you feel my mouth closing in
You flesh will shiver
Your blood will race
Your eyes will plead
“Yes”
Your hunger for the unknown
That you know, that you fear
Your false sense of control
Is your submission
I want to eat you alive
Hear you scream
Again
