Nutrition and the lack of it .

Nutrition and the lack of it .

A Poem by writingonthewall
"

In order to survive you need nutrition. However not everything you ingest is nutritional. Everything that applies to nutrition can be applied to knowledge. Lacking knowledge can be lethal.

"
There is no tomorrow,
Not for me,
Not for my family

Today we died,
who killed us? 

It wasn't the drugs,
the guns,
the violence.

The real culprit-Hunger

A Hunger we didn't know we had;
We ate everything we could,
asked for seconds and thirds.

Imagine the Dark Ages,
Mid-Evil Indeed
Only Nobility had feasts,
But, even they died with empty stomachs 

Present-day, imagine this dark age
Everyone a King and Queen,
Even we can die with empty stomachs.
