I DREAMT
I dreamt I was so hungry.
I ate my whole hand.
It started with the right pinky,
then the ring finger.
I devoured my middle finger,
then the right pointing finger.
The thumb took a bit longer
because I was feeling full.
I got my second wind and
I ate my palm all the way up
to the wrist and the wrist watch.
The dream was so strange.
It took about an hour for
another hand to grow in
place of the eaten hand.
The new hand looked just
like the old hand only a
little bigger and less rough.
I had new fingerprints that
belonged to someone else
that was not even human.
