SONG OF BILLION LIVES
Play the song of billion lives,who lost their wish in the fight for cake,
Be not in a hast to drop pity,before, swimming in tears like a drake,
Comes dusty wind abound,up goes their tattered rag,who unravel their dilapidated ribs and skins,
staggering to and fro,their weary form,control by drunken veins,
Permit your eardrum to grasp wide,it will hear the echoes of their stomach rumpus,
Lovers to catarrh, users of cough,they sprinkle their neighbor with sparse mucus,
Undust your brows and stare clearly you will see their tiny legs afraid of ground,
All what their nostril perceives, a smell of delicacy hovering round,
Like lion,they run around,chasing their shadow,who abscond with their bread,
Tomorrow never die,they hate to hear,
Because, today starvation they never win.
