Sotto Poet Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Grains In Need

Our digestive system is starting to hurt
We thoroughly deemed this void
As if we're crashing from a Pyramid in, revert
An urgent necessity that must be spoiled
The earth is shifting to sand in an islet desert
Land beheld through the lens of greed boiled.

Unless we dig ourselves out of dismal dirt
We are going to hurt the crashing avoid
Giving you a speck of buoyancy exerts
You should sow it since it's a seed poised

I request a grain and am granted a sight
I require a piece and am granted the right
When I ask for a roll, I get paper insight

When I seek exegesis, I am said of my gut delight
I will be attentive to the light
When I pray to the realm, the gates reveal the site.

Victor Buhagiar November 21, 2022 at 12:16 AM Hunger is not a punishment from above but the greed of humanity.

Andrea Dietrich November 20, 2022 at 3:54 PM it's sad that there is actually enough land to grow food for all the world, but thanks to greed and inefficient govt. systems, people are still growing hungry
