Not Your Lunch

Close the lid
that is not your lunch
today.

That hunger
is a fuel
all its own

all its own.

Ready to eat
is a fuller state
than feed
measured in possibility
and creativity

or invention by old necessity

Close the lid
that is not your lunch
today.

That hunger
is a fuel
all its own.

Anticipation
is so much more alive
that good thanksgiving sleep.

Chase down
all you want to do about it
all the things you'd fix
all the love unloved.

Don't give in
and become satisfied,
that has ever only led to rest.
