Can Humans Conquer Hunger? Poem by Ramesh T A

When hunger comes, self-control over everything flies off;
Rationality, love, humaneness, spirituality and all fly off
Leaving one left with instinct only like all animals desperate
To satisfy the need of hunger by taking anything available!

Thoughts on spiritual ideas never work, when one is thirsty
And hungry as soul being just a prisoner only in human body;
Unless body is in sound condition, brain, heart and spirit
Are simply charge-less with energy to be active as mind likes!

Hunger can be satisfied, only when one is employed with good
Salary to support one's life and depending ones' lives for
Discharging one's destined duties to go higher up in status
To live enjoying freedom, joy, love and peace as one likes!

Even sages, mystics and spiritual leaders cannot do thier
Highest duty controlling hunger unless they take food sure!
If human beings can survive sans hunger, it is possible only
By taking energy direct from Sun as plants do all over Earth!
