Famine
Saura
Dirty, filthy rags
Bones boring through
Large empty eyes
Fingers like knitting needles.
Craving for a morsel of food
Stomachs swollen
Empty ache.
Ireland 1847.
Ethiopia 1977 Somalia 1987
Russia, Peru, Auschwich, Japan
Biafra, Rawanda.
Hunger, poverty and starvation
Need no language of translation.
It's in the eyes, the feet, the hands
The sunken face of many lands.
Famine, sickness, death
And sorrow.
Anne Kelly
