Hunger

The child is young
& empty inside
food is hard to
come by what to eat
Holding a cup up to a stranger
requests
Anything a bite a treat
Anything to feel complete

The night is young
& full of rest
I can’t describe the
way she’s dress’d
She’ll pander to some strange
requests
Anything that you suggest
