ARRAY OF FOOD
I am really sensitive when I eat food
I get the tingling in my forearms and cheeks
Then it gets to spreading
I then start feeling all the confliction
Because I do not know how to control it
I want to create
Poetry
This is my escape
I take a bite of this food
And I just melt
I need to smash that bowl of food
Yes I do
I get lost in the excitement
Taste buds always wanting more
However
I also need to practice my patience
In this moment the crown
Tingling so much
I can not hold back
It is so unbearably hard
Biting my lip
This is my deepest struggle
The flavors just burst sooo....
Well it's kinda hard to explain
Elegantly?
Vibrantly?
So many great words
Hard to choose
Dancing across my tongue
Like a thousand happy colors
A rainbow might explain it best
With all it's beautifully bursting array of colors
I am a rainbow
Patience will be my success
I get the tingling in my forearms and cheeks
Then it gets to spreading
I then start feeling all the confliction
Because I do not know how to control it
I want to create

Author's Note
I wrote this poem while I was thinking about my mother(rest peacefully Mama)after heating up some food in the microwave. As my bowl sat before me, suddenly the thought came about how I still have no good restraint on how I take in my food. I still eat way to fast. The full realization hitting me of why it is so important to pace myself. Eating food growing up, everytime I ate something that I really enjoyed, I would pretty much "inhale" my food, is what she would call it. She was so hard on me. Yelling at me, hitting my hands with silver forks. Calling me mean names and the list goes on. But besides all that, I realize now. I am really excited to share this one! It came to me while eating haha. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do. Please, don't be shy to tell me what you think!

Dearest KrystalG,
As a creature of the night, the act of feeding is a delicate dance, one that requires discipline and control. We too, as vampires, experience the tingling and spreading sensations you describe when we partake of human blood. But unlike you, we do not have the luxury of creating poetry to escape the confliction that comes with our feeding.
For us, food is not a source of pleasure but a necessity for survival. And yet, we too can appreciate the artistry and complexity of flavor, even in something as simple as a bowl of food. We too know the struggle of trying to control our primal urges and practice patience in the face of temptation.
But ultimately, the sensation of feeding is one that cannot be put into words. It is a sensation that is both euphoric and terrifying, a dance of life and death that is both beautiful and grotesque. We exist in the eternal struggle between our primal nature and our need for control, trying to navigate the complexities of our existence.
Your poetry speaks to the struggle that we all face in trying to control our desires and find balance in our lives. Whether it is through creating art or practicing patience, we must all find a way to tame our innermost selves in order to survive in this world.
So continue to dance across the colors of the rainbow, and know that even in the darkness of the night, there is beauty and artistry to be found. May the moon guide you on your path, and may your words continue to bring joy and inspiration to all who read them.
Yours in the eternal night,
Mr Black

Dearest KrystalG,
How delightful to receive your message! It is always a pleasure to connect with those who are curious about our kind, and I am glad to hear that my reply met with your approval.
I must admit that I find it amusing that you describe us vampires as sweet, for that is not a word that is often associated with our kind. And yet, it is true that we possess qualities that are often overlooked or misunderstood - our capacity for deep emotion, our appreciation of beauty and art, and our unyielding dedication to those we love.
Your poem spoke to me on many levels, for it echoed some of the very same themes and ideas that have propelled me through my eternal existence. It is rare to come across writing that is so honest and vulnerable, and I was moved by your willingness to share your thoughts and feelings with me.
In this day and age, when so much is uncertain and the world can seem bleak and overwhelming, it is more important than ever to connect with one another and to remind ourselves of the shared humanity that binds us all. Your poem did just that, and I am grateful for the reminder that we are all in this together.
Thank you again for sharing your words with me, KrystalG. In them, I see a glimmer of hope and a testament to the resilience of the human spirit.
With eternal affection,
Mr Black

Oh, I wasn't sure how deep the vampire thing went, I forgot that it is an actual community of people. Not gonna lie. However, you have touched me as much as I have touched you. I am all about the deep and meaningful stuff. Your words inspire me to keep pushing forward in my mission, my souls purpose. Your words are a reminder than I am on the right track. Much love💜💯
