" Philosophy of Bread

To Lenin and Iqbal:

The East treats me as a second class citizen, the West as a third class citizen still,

life is mired in fees, rents and unending bills.

New century’s children keep on breeding, farms get smaller and farmers poorer, it’s the bankruptcy mills,

bread lines get longer, the pestilence kills

whilst the few eat money and honey,


And God laughs at the future. "
