Feast On This

the world is so hungry
thinking they can feast on everything
filling themselves to bursting
with earthly things
yet we all know they're still hungry and thirsting
wanting to know of the gift they've been given
greater than all things in heaven
and how he tore the veil
just so you could get a little closer to the father
with all your pleas
always he's answering to wax-filled ears so you don't hear
wax because your body rejecting everything toxic
yet you still smoking and drinking to to oblivion
get a taste of this and it'll allow you to live again
yet like a college student forgetting to eat
you're snacking on the very least
grabbing junk food with no real sustenance
grow up baby or you gonna stay egotistical
oh so selfish when so many others need to be led to
where you and I can truly be fed

About this poem:
Wrote this poem for an inspirational audition. However, I ended up doing another poem. It just seems as if it is a little "hard" or too aggressive. I've been told it has a wonderful rhythm though and I should put a beat behind it and another verse or two.
