Hunger

Bloated stomachs

and rust- colored hair

 

strolls everywhere

 

- in the countryside

and city slums,

 

obliged to perish

much before their time

 

empty, naked

hungry and cold,

 

their figures are like

the edge of the world

 

-an embarkation

point of hope.

 

The tears,

spilling out from their heart,

 

a concoction of

a broken mirror

 

and the cigarette

burning at the both ends.

I like this one too. Interesting -- embarkation of hope. What else? It jarred me, but when there is no lower place to go, hope is what is left. Thank you, and interested in any insights on my own. Glad to have found you.

powerful imagery reinforces the statement of this poem ...

We can never know, nor understand, their suffering. News bites in a television's drone-the third world's a universe away from most. Our stomachs are bloated from over-eating, consuming everything in our path. They are consumed by being born. Where death is a welcome respite-this is a testament to our apathy. Fine write, Bhuwan...

Such a atrocity to mankind when so many must endure such suffering needlessly. Godspeed....

Be always safe,
