Poems about hunger
This Death's Experiment
the dying need but little, dear,
or is this death's experiment
this was all
contenteder if once
no hunger had she nor an inn
is gotten not of fingers
If Town It Cannot See
the hunger does not cease
if town it have beyond itself
so preconcerted with itself
that knows it cannot see
and would it feel as big
where none of us should be,
To Try
their mortal fate encourage some
the hunger does not cease
at least to pray is left is left
awaited even him
neither place need i present him
to those who dare to try
to him who strives severe
with him remain who unto me
if he were living dare i ask
i think i'd shoot the human race
how ignorant i had been
i met him
when one turned smiling to the land
because it was a child, you know
But Something Held My Feet, Too, That
that hunger was a way
a pace had been between
i had been hungry, all the years
my feet, too, that had wandered so
but something held my will,
at least, it solaces to know
who knows but at the sight of that
Her Polar Time They Will Be What
the hunger does not cease
and they will differ if they do
i meant to have but modest needs
how fitter they will be for want
the maker of ourselves be what
the lightning playeth all the while
and hungered for the same
her polar time behind
but held her gravity aloft
that held the dams had parted hold
there came one drop of giant rain,
first time they try the sky!
whether my bark went down at sea
Could I Such A Way
that hunger was a way
could i such a plea withstand
i tried to drop it in the crowd
but no man moved me till the tide
pray lead me to his bed!
For Heaven Is And That Which Is A
either the darkness alters
when that which is and that which was
that hunger was a way
for heaven is a different thing,
the ballots of eternity, will show just that,
Such Guilt To Me
such guilt to love thee most!
should you but fail at sea
day knocked and we must part
and every time i speak for him
and next i met her on a cloud
in which my call would come
one need not be a house
that hunger was a way
yet know not what was done to me
