Hunger

He saw two rag-pickersFighting over who found it first –The raw and stale bread loaf.Their mindless strife stoppedAnd turned into a disappointmentWhen the stray street dogTaking advantage of their quarrelRan away with the bread loaf… He realized from that episodePerhaps the hunger of bellyIs much stronger in lifeThan the hunger of heart. 21,408 total views
