Still - A Poem by Moe

"This is your life...are you who you want to be?..."

My cage is plagued by dis-ease and triumphant 
rage. Enslaved by conscience, love and lust 
working holistically inside an ancient text 
from whence my spirit found life. Yet and 
still...hungry.

A sage enslaved to cave. What grace this face 
to taste. To drink to my brink and miss what 
did not kiss. The hunger kept, swept and 
unchecked. Worn, torn, scarred and marred. 
Numb, steady. Still...hungry. 

Bound then unwound. I drown into unsought 
greatness. Still...hungry...

~Moses Apollo
