FEEDING LIONS

how to put the day to sleep
when
youre
stretched
out
TENSE
on the cool dusk sheets
WIRED 

with
the knowledge of the Big Wrong
and
the
Escape of Tumbling Time ?

i feel
i've failed 
to fill
another waking cycle
with
Massive and Awesome Creation



i've let another day
back-up
like
fat in the drain

and
now i hide still and quiet
hoping
the
lions
wont find me
and
eat up
my
soft ambition
