Many a man is waited upon
By patient vultures to devour.
Man
Has lost her predatorship
And become the new prey.
The prevailing predator is Hunger,
Its sisters Starvation and Famine-
All three-
Ravage my helpless neighbours.
I thought we lived in a community
We called International
But it is clear we are alone.
What shame need slap our face?
What pity need cross our heart?
What plea need profit our pockets
Before we help us?
Yours sincerely,
Very Sad.
