Pantoublock with Merriam Webster and Limitless Desire

Hunger, a strong urge to be filled. Fire, to light
up a skyline with the contents of my love. Crave,
to yearn for full. Hunger, an urgent need to fill.
Fire, to combust what’s been busted, to free
the seraphina. I will swallow the world in my love.
Hunger, an urgent need to feed. I have laid down
my plans of resurrection to quiet the red-tongued
chimera in my belly. This world will be swollen
in my love. Fire, to burst forth a rain cloud of plasma
upon the sleeping world. I have laid down my plans
of resurrection to quell the fork-tongued chimera
in my belly. Crave, to yearn for the black eye
of the flame. Fire, a seraphina bursting from a cloud
of ash raining plasma upon the world. Wicked strangers
lick my love from their wrists. Crave, to yearn to dance
inside the eye of the flame. I ride the air, raining down
my love, turning white clouds to ash, blue skies to red.
