as water drips into the casing
faces crawl out to the span
lusting to be wet and full

this day, your daily bread does not appease
but lies in crumbs on their swollen tongues
as they scan the span
lusting to be wet and full

they take pride in their dry, cracked lips
"we've tasted true life," they say
"it is richer than your daily bread"

as water drips into the casing
dry faces dig into the sand
lusting to be wet and full
