I swear your love
would raise me
out of my grave,
in my flesh and blood,

like Lazarus;
hungry for this,
and this, and this,
your living kiss.
Carol Ann Duffy, "If I Was Dead"

I lived as a monster, my only
hope is to die like a child.
Franz Wright, "The Heaven"

My hunger is all tooth and steel inside me—it gnaws at my heart like a bone.
