Consumption

The hungry cosmos.

By AlexaPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

Eat and eat, that's all we ever do

Communion bread and community meal

Lies we tell and lips we fill

Is it any wonder the sun wants to turn her back on us, the moon wants to witness in dark fascination

Perhaps we're just doing what we're made for

Swallowing and surpassing is natural to everything that lives and much that doesn't

Eclipse is just a pretty word for it.
