Eating in the Dark
Write anything about eating in the dark, either literally or metaphorically.
midnight stanching
night is the hungry time
when disappointments of
hours and years and days
gather to gnaw when
day’s small steadiness
dissipates and
moonshadow nothings mock
efforts elapsed when
dreams are gaps
in life we try to
fill with empty bread
until new light
