Hunger Poem by Noon E

Hunger

Smooth surfaces stay smooth but not for long

They get carved by a machine gun's bullets

Pure things stay pure but not for long

They get tainted by a powerful man's lies

A new born is alive but not for long

Hunger's boney fingers will tug at his insides

And spill them all over his mother's breasts

The sweet baby boy will not celebrate his 15th birthday

His skull would be a home for bullets
