Sustain Me Poem by Mark Heathcote

I can't bite any harder
Like a shark, I'll eat whatever comes my way
Look, sustain me - I don't sleep
I'm ferrous, a hungry flame
And I'm only, just getting started
I'm a global wave, a tsunami
I'm so thirsty I'll not even stop,
Stop upon reaching the highest mountain top.

Look, sustain me - I don't sleep
Look, sustain me - I don't dream
I'm ferrous, a hungry flame
I only believe my heart and soul
Must hunger, feed and forage
That way I'll remain eternally strong,
Weather - whatever comes along?
And fills, and refills my sacred cup.
