Feedback Wanted [Poem] Growl
Growl goes my stomach As I scrounge any and all money I can To buy any food to stop the beast
Growl goes my stomach As the hunger pains strike Gnawed from the inside
Growl goes my stomach As I wander through the garbage Scrounging for the smallest crumb
Growl goes my stomach As I wait in the soup kitchen line Surrounded by others like me
Growl goes my stomach As I search tirelessly for any job No matter how degrading or grueling
Growl goes my stomach As I work to the bone Earning any money for food
Growl goes my family’s stomachs As I do what I can to get food for them Praying my family doesn’t go hungry
Growl goes my stomach As I lie in my bed to sleep To temporarily escape my hunger
Growl goes my stomach Wondering if we will eat tomorrow Or if the hunger will devour us
