It’s right there
On the table
Behind you
So succulent
And so well done
Could just turn around
And take it off
Its silver platter
It looks so good
And you’re so hungry
Temptation hasn’t felt
A burn like this before
For you to yearn this bad
It would hurt
To reach for it
But you feel like you’re
Already dying in a desert
You could do it, take
The lure and get ensnared
Enjoy
And move on with it
No longer hungry
Maybe
Or still you could hunger
Or thirst for even rarer
Or ever-present meats
Meat
It’s so rude to think
Like it’d be so simple
When you’re just hungry
Could you stop yourself?
Unchallenging
Not unfulfilling
Even if it’s burned
Or spiced strangely
Lean
Rare and well done
Burned
Everything I’m
Looking for to
Satisfy my
Shorter term
It’s right there
Easy meat right behind you
Resist
