HUNGER
Reading edition
I have journeyed toward the city On the long, long road of Life, I have learned how little Pity Plays a speaking part in life. I have learned that only Money Is the voice that’s heard today, Calling for God’s milk and honey, Even Hunger has no say. I have reached the city’s center By the crooked road of Hell, For Starvation’s been my mentor And has taught her lesson well.
