Unsatiated by Peter Reum

Entropy is contagious
Our bohdisattva is missing
No one answers our calls
Stoned prophets seek comfort
Doing it alone

Wisdom teeth are pulled from asses
Whose boilerplates are a pox
Secular mumblers blown
Worshipping at a paper throne
Their selves daily moan

Our best and brightest
Lured like patsies into searching
Theirs is a fate chasing
The lure of hungry ghosts unknown

Who can comfort a soul distorted
Hungrily fleeing from the elements
That assist the generously inclined
Like a coyote under the moon
Stuck in fear howling at adversaries
Whose addiction is grander...
Their riches lost to fate like O'Keeffe's
Skull and bone
