Hunger, hunger and hunger
Like the grains everywhere
But not a single meal of day
Millions of people everywhere
Africa, Asia and Latin America
Sleep with hand in their stomach.
"Not a single meal of day"
Deprived of the human rights
Basic of the basic rights
Of human being.
The bottomline of the rights
Is to treat or the hunger
Fill the millions of hungry stomach
The sunken eyes and bellies
Swelling bony face.
The ultimate goal of all
Is to feed the hungry stomach
Hunger is against religion
Of all religious beliefs
It is sin not feed some
It is immoral not to resolve
This serious problem of
The universe
It is unethical not to find
Alternative way to feed
Hunger
First responsibility of all
Nation and government in the world
Is to feed the hungry people
This is the first and foremost priority
Of all
Abolition of hunger.

Poetry: Hunger
Blindly, I walk through the city streets of Atlanta
My eyes glazed over with visions not of you and your friends
Laughing
by Gary Maclean
A hollow forms deep, within my being
No satisfaction, does there seem
The cavernous, empty vacuum
The huge, echoing back room
"Street children"
Orphaned, hungry alone,
they ravage the garbage
Pillar through trash cans and waste,
Looking for one morsel,
One piece of bread a day
Was all I had
Sometimes, I would break it in half
Sometimes, I could make it toast
My children's bellies
by SLLawson
Hunger
Guttural longing uncontrolled
Both night and day
Throughout the world
Searching, longing, growing old
Seeking protection
