The Hungry

 the hungry and proud sleep 

with grumbling stomachs, 

the hungry and poor are not choosy 

their stomach can digest any kind of bacteria, 

hungry and poor rummage through bins 

looking for anything remotely edible 

they compete with flies in the food chain 


the hungry, and broke 

oscillate between hunger and pride 

the pangs bite their consciousness 

of course they have to blame someone 

or some force in the universe
