Hunger Pains
By Perkele
I am..
...Famished for a coastline drive
the snow covered
ranges
looking out onto
tall redwood trees
...Starved
for words of beauty
flowing syllables
determined to give
every minute significance
...Aching for a philosophy
genuine
with clarity
words to live by
etch into my skeleton
...Hankering for the eye of god
that searing heat
whenever
I feel it
glance upon me
...Craving your song set sway
sinuous and curving
the benediction
of your grace
Mostly,
I'm just hungry for you
