Famished
written by: Anne G
@TheInkTruth
Famished are we
those who seek truth
Gnawing sensation
wreaking havoc within
Incessantly fed
with crumbs of untruths
Malnourished and starved
between lies and distrust
We hopelessly grasp
at scraps of what was
Wishing and hopeful
we devour each word
Longing for sustenance
to nourish the soul

Why write? I write because I am: Driven to distraction by the inequities of the society in which we live. Motivated by cruelty, abuse, ignorance and indifference. My intention: To poke, prod and provoke!
