Lust for Life
no steaming calzone
no empty calories 
can sustain my starving souls

no lingering smoke
no uncaught coughs
can dim my vacant sights

no white pellets
no seasonal sanity 
can sway my straying corpse 

no back-alley bright enough 
no seductive sea calm enough
to rekindle my lust for life

Unsung, my song of hope:
feed me
find me
free me
from these grey demons’ control.
