Even though his stomach is satiated, his eye will not be satiated.

A hungry man thinks he won't be satiated, a thirsty man thinks he won't be quenched.
A satiated man doesn't know what's hunger, a healthy man doesn't know what's disease.
Therefore the elect shall go forth... to see the torments of the impious, seeing which they will not be grieved, but will be satiated with joy at the sight of the unutterable calamity of the impious.

The human desire
A desire dies if satiated.
It dies too when it exhausted.
The denial and the deprivation
Kill most of the human desires

Water
words & music by jason mraz
The eye of the storm meets the eye of the mind sending it spinning
Spinning not knowing which way is up not knowing which way to go
The eye of the mind blushes in lust of all the answers for years of tears, years in fear..
Oh the bitter water; satiated, covered in salt
Keeping me afloat, moving me along
And I can see everything. I can see thru buildings..
All the shattered lives and the battered wives..
And everybody's hypnotized by the dancing light
TV sets making everybody go blind.
And I can see thru you.
And when I look inside I know..
That you are living in a fantasy world taking your time, running your mind on low
And you are living in a fantasy land holding nobody's hand but your own
I said, "I can see everything"
One drop of rain that's me and all the rest is you
Who shook these trees? Let me guess did they come in two's?
When you're dealing with the fruits of the universe
You shake that apple tree, life deals you an orange, either way you're cursed
Oh the bitter water, satiated, covered in salt
Keeping me afloat, and always moving me along
It's keeping me on top of the water
Keeping me on top of the world
Keeping me on top I'm looking out
just to see what everything is all about
and I know where it is.. just don't know exactly what it is..

Want
You know what I want
Yet you won’t give me.
I know what you want
Yet I won’t give you.
For, if you and I
Give each other
What we want…
Society will
Make us feel
Guilty…
For having satiated
Our want.

Reverberating Breath
through satiated
darkness spread in the room
a single audible breath
rose and reverberated
before it floated away
to be one with
the roaring sea
a pair of hands
stretched once agin
in anticipation
into the silence
left behind

Sex Binds Us
Sex binds us.
Nothing else.
You don’t feel like
Making love
To a man,
Whom you
Just love
As a friend.
But you have to
As he’s the one
You are
Married to…
We are bonded
By sex.
He, with an
Unquenchable
Desire…
To make love.
And I,
Just as well
Satiated
With no sex.
On second thoughts,
Sex binds us – does it?

Madoff
“A Liar, A Cheat, A Thief” his epitaph will no doubt read.
He made off with many dreams in his convulsions of greed.
Not caring for his victims, he squandered their treasures;
What he made off them never satiated his lust for pleasures.
The sadness of such a sick man’s need to only take and receive…
He made off with their faith; the consummate reason to grieve.

Facetious
it is a
1599 word
from the
latin facetiae
facetieux from
facetie jest
a joker a jester
waggish
it is meant
to be humorous or funny
and witty
like you Robert
like what i said before
like someone who is not
meant to be a faucet
where water goes out
by force
and then we want
stopped after
a certain use
after we outlive
its usefulness
we close it
and make it
silent
after a thirst
has been duly satiated.

Reality TV
What has all of life been reduced to?
A hyping of a joke promoted,
To be taken seriously.
And the provoking of this one joke,
Sold to be closely monitored...
On reality TV.
To leave anyone with any credibility,
Suspected as not being truly...
A natural born citizen,
If that person has a hint of sensibility.
And this creation becomes satiated,
As a taste of life...
The way it is lived and should be!

At The End....
i anticipate the end
but i do not worry
i know the ending long
before hand
even if you do not have
to tell me
what the ending is all about
i know it
by heart
and so i do not worry about it
anymore
i know my heart
and your heart knows mine
we are satiated
that friendship knows best
that commitment knows better
whatever
faith.

Of all tyrannies a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Lethargy
Lethargy creeps in when heart is broken
When hopes and dreams stand at a distant
When lacking the inspiration and motivation
When fruit of success doesn't show its face
When purpose is meaningfully directionless,
When doubt is created in the ability and utility
When repeated failure is a satiated languor
And strain benumbed the mind crawling in the stupor

Noticeable Loss Of Positive Energy
No everlasting feeling of joy,
Permanently stays...
In those who participate,
With the undoing of advancements...
Others around them make.
There is a bond affected.
Whether this is known or not.
A benefitting flow disconnects.
And a motivation once satiated,
Stops...
With a noticeable loss of positive energy,
In the environment!
And no one perceives,
Their own selective negative input...
As the reason.
With calls of an outreaching,
To unify collective efforts...
Ignored.
Eventually to become abandoned.

The Arrogance of Humanity.
Never ceases to amaze me.
The arrogance of people.
Listening to a woman speak
How important it is to
Bleat on about
Drinking whiskey neat.
The arrogance goes on unabated.
Drink loosens jowels but nothing
Fresh is stated.
Never ceases to amaze me.
The self importance of the ego.
Its lust for power is never satiated.
The life and times of the 'I', 'I', 'I'!
