In This Afternoon Poem by dipak adhya

Now the sun has moved
My shadow has also passed under my feet
Sweat is dripping from forehead
A little bit thirsty too
But all has been defeated
As I am hungry most.

I had had something at dawn
And I am certain
There is nothing in my stomach
Yet nothing is around my side
Except the work for which I have been engaged.

I am lucky enough now to get a job
I know there will be food and repose after this hard work
But my peers are not lucky enough

Yet I will eat at evening
Now I only want soon the approaching of twilight
I'll eat
Must eat
The salted food for this body!
