No Food Only Thought Poem by Kris Rayagiri

No Food Only Thought

Rating: 5.0


A floating thought
Thinking and thinking
The future is Scary
The future is uncertain

Praying and thinking
About future
but then again thinking
Is this necessary
All the thinking

All the thought
I put in
Gone to waste
To only rise, fright within

Maybe my thought
Should not be, about the future
or the Fruit it bears
and provision of relief
of the past, that's gone

Think of the present
The immediate life along
Act on the present
for the life to come

for uncertainty remains
regardless of the thought
acting and thinking for the present
there is no err
this is the truth

Pain and hunger
memories down the lane
the reality of despair

A reality that provides
no food but only thought
