PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

A bowl of rice is all that stands between

   me and Death... or maybe not

Many have gone longer on less and a rare

   few go on nothing and live to tell about it

An Aboriginal man once told me that people

   eat food because they have forgotten how

      to be nourished by The-All-That-Is

A Hopi woman once told me that eating is a

   social activity not a physical need

A Tibetan lama once told me that the body

   is manufactured by the mind and that

      hunger is an emotional problem 

Food for thought
