the crying sound of hungry mind


The Persian cat
Out in the sun
He hardly stays home
He wants to run his freedom

When he sees the gate opens
He runs in meowing his hungry face
With his furs uncomb and sleepy eyes
He wants to eat his midday meal

He will get his meal
Once he has his filled
He will disappear again
In somebody's home dozing away

Like the Ali Baba and his forty thieves
They have the hungry look of wealth and misdeeds
Once they get the mandate with lies and cheats
The people will suffer for higher taxes to be paid

Now the crying sound of hungry minds
It is the wealth and power they need
Once the people fall for the tricks
The country will fall in the dark pit
