Poverty's Grass Poem by Cynthia Buhain-baello

Poverty's Grass



Arrogance said
We eat Poverty's grass
As Mockery fed
Biased high class

Now the famine
The Suicide breed
Pride is the sin
Destroyed your seed

We may eat grass
But you eat the soil
Your words are brass
And now you recoil

Grass tastes better
That you must know
But Death is the bitter
Seed that you grow

Dried and barren
Your land had become
Our grass can be eaten -
Do you want some?
