Theater of the absurd

 
 
Ricocheting from home to home, 
banging down doors yelling FEED 
ME FEED ME, never staying long 
enough to be fed, going steadily 
insane with hunger instead, always 
returning hopefully to empty kitchens, 
hands and mouth open, swallowing 
painful clumps of bitter air, still 
surprised at the absence there.
