hunger

hunger

hone human hunger
'til it can split atoms
line up desire with its
-- wants

gorge appetite with them
all
-- none are real
in this dream within

-- a dream

ashes -- ashes
not even they
own substance
only the -- spark -- we share . . .!

light
as a butterfly's
wing.

Hi Victor. I enjoy the passion in your poems. * ..."So much sound and fury, signifying nothing ..." (life, of course, but you do it with great passion.
