Hungry Heart

Posted on March 13, 2013 by

….

Pour me loose,
batter thin.
Taste my now and
scald my skin
with truth;
scars forgiven,
flayed to bone.

Fold these edges
and steep within,
then shell me
softly
to center
stone.

    scald my skin
    with truth;

    Fold those edges…

    Yes, a heart would be happy with such treatment!
