Reason Drowns In The Rough Seas Of Desire


Just for a fleeting moment the desire for a paella 
Like those served in Denia 
                            Nearly overwhelmed me
            Nothing worse than a craving
            For something absolutely unattainable 
            At the moment
                            Desire 
Is a cruel, cruel mistress
Make you do anything, everything
                            To obtain
Hobbes it was who expressed that thought
"Fundamental motivation for all human action"
            Whether to satisfy an appetite
            Or the heart
            Desire will make you want to sell your
                             Soul
Which is why I envy those who have
Found a way to make it through life without
                              One
