A child's hand


Skeletal


Grasping, clawing, clutching


Her eyes clouded


From starvation


She sits alone in the muddy dark


Her mother somewhere near


Attracting flies


Her light's gone out


And so the child lives


In darkness


She'll soon die


Her body will turn to dust


To feed the earth


On which other starving children will lie
