loneliness is not swallowed whole
it is a feast that is choked down
a feast forced to finish every last morsel
until even the desert
becomes a foolish waste of time
as well as your punishment
  and you're left with guilt and shame
with a touch of self-loathing
no, loneliness is not swallowed whole
it is a feast far too extravagant and large
to be eaten, in its entirety
by any single person
