So Hungry

January 18, 2011

By SILVER, San Jose, California

More by this author

Stomach rumbling
Fingers fumbling
Mind is tumbling
Giving up

Feet are stomping
Hooves are clomping
I am chomping
Him all up

Now he is dead
The walls are red
But I am fed
So just shut up

The author's comments:

This was for an exercise in my creative writing class. The idea was to think of a metaphor or some other cliche and take it literally. Then I had to write a poem or short summary to illustrate how I interpreted the literal sense of the cliche. I chose "so hungry, I could eat a horse".
