gourmand

you delicately feast on dismay
suck dry each morsel of misery
picking clean the bones of mortality
leaving no meat on the carcass of me
a fine vintage of my tears to wash it all down
and yet, still ravenous you make stock from my bones
depleting even my marrow
leaving no sustenance
no substance
no suspense
insignificant
my essence
lessens &
ends
