this emptiness
eating away at the void
feeding the soul
with a cartoon pic
of man of the year

this hunger
yearning to be sated
by a Monet landscape
hushed instead with
a deep fried dim sim

this feeling
of fullness
trying to push
sloppy belly fat
spurting between fingers
as my moth-eaten heart sags

Had to google dim sim. You Aussies ;)
Comfort eating and self deprecation. What is not to love?
You never fail

ah, a love handle is not love. The void remains.

Ooof! A very painful poem, but done with such economy. Brava!
