Dont Ever Feed the Poor

Don't ever feed the poor,
Let their yearning,
For hunger stay alive;
More the hunger, starvation,
The stronger momentum 
Of the slogans are; 
Complicate them in religion,
Race, and parity;
Give them promise,
Which don't materialise;
Is the first and last rule
Of all political system;
The day you feed hunger,
Give clothing shelter,
Poverty wanes,
Chairs of rulers too quaver;
All associated to hunger,
Poverty will relapse;
Many centuries,
We have observed;
All poverty players, 
Are mortal, come and go;
But immortal poverty field,
Remains intact, defeating all;
