Consumer

Chewing the world to bits.
Spitting it into heaps of trash
Faster and faster.
Ravenous, out of control, red
Eyes bulging out, slavering,
Gnashing the teeth, tongue
Hanging out, hair standing on end.
Sweating with effort of eating,
Burning up as fast as it refuels.
Swallowing everything in it’s path.
Hands shaped like shovels…
Hands shaped like knives and forks…
Legs like pistons.
Unstoppable, insatiable, insensate.
