hunger-kind by Casey Renee Kiser

spiteful hearts get safety-pinned
together
until the lessons are truly
recovered
and we choke on our words,
devouring
our mirrored hearts and unravel;
discovering
our true paths to walk in wisdom,
blessing
the one we once cursed to hell
morphing
into the healthiest hunger-kind
