Dwarfing me,
You pat my head
That hangs in insecurity
Will I earn my bread?
I wonder, whilst
my flat stomach yearns
Somewhere beyond
They waste food
Drinks run like rivers
Where?
I wonder.
They had me go
Touched me some
Hit them and hit back
I'm not me, am I?
The last morsel went
The next might never come
Food food food
Is all I can think about
My skin and bones across
You pat my head
but your stomach is full
They taught you empathy
But they didnt
Teach you to share!
