Neither feast nor famine <br />should show its fickle face. <br />The wine for some <br />and for most just a trace. <br />A few bitter drops of bitter liquid <br />lapped up by their thirst <br />and why? <br />Because others must come first? <br /> <br />And who decides this unfair thing? <br />Must not be the one whose praises we sing. <br />And who shall stop this unfair thing? <br />Must not be any that call themselves King. <br /> <br />Neither feast nor famine <br />should ever be allowed. <br />And those that feast should hunger <br />and feed the starving crowd.<br /><br />Edwina Reizer<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/feast-or-famine/
