famished


famished
I have walked miles
meandering the narrow lanes
my feet are dust laden
my head is buzzing confusingly
what am I seeking, I don't know
what seeks me, I don't know
I finally end up in a deserted street
see a lone building in the vicinity
an eatery, it seems, like in the olden times
with smoke coming out of a chimney
hunger pangs hit me hard
I wish for the oily fried food
entering, I sit in a corner,
and order oil laden stuff
"hope they deliver it before I drop dead"
