What Food?

                          What Food?
 
 
 
Been said under the skin we’re all the same
Further said we’re all equal under God
 
Words not lightly thrown yet empty they seem
Look around no further than where you are
You’re lying down texting with your iPhone
The biggest of the latest bells whistles
Model in your hand... can feed whole village
In poor countries worldwide where hunger spread
 
Look up the ceiling fan the walls windows
Feel comfy on your plush firm warm mattress?
Feel like taking a warm shower maybe?
Of course anytime there’s Starbucks coffee
Suntanned from beach sun in the pink you are
Muscles toned your fingers toes manicured
 
Poor villages in poor countries worldwide
Barely live sustaining health from landfills
With empty stomachs sleepless on bare earth
What warm water what shelter what warm  food?
 
Been said under the skin we’re all the same
Further said we’re all equal under God
