When hunger rumbles
deep within our starving souls,
what repast will fill the void?
~
When the soul hungers
the divine rejoices to
have a chance to fill the void.

If you were planning
a menu for a full life,
what would you include?
~
A meaty vocation,
an aged vintage romance,
and some salty memories.
A warm loaf of bread,
a cool jug of wine and thou…
Did Khayyám miss anything?
~
A bit of heaven
such as this needs only deep

food turns to mush when we dine
with company less sublime.
Is it better to
sup with jays or eat crow? – a

to control actions beyond
us before we leash our own?

Is it a comfort,
when viewing the road ahead,

It all depends on
whether we are behind bars
or walking free.
When we so yearn for

on this uneven terrain?
~
For a species born
in trees, unused to ground,
surely comfort can be found.
