Hungry, so hungry

Hungry, so hungry,
It wants to eat itself.
Crush it to a mash,
Won't ask for your help.
Above a bottomless pit,
Hanging by a thread.
Asking same questions,
To answers that are dead.
Don't bother it so,
Don't leave it alone,
Don't shoo it away,
Don't give it a home.
Don't throw it away,
Don't try to help,
Let it end its hunger,
By eating itself.
