The Dinning Room
We made them our chefs
But our plate is filled with bones
From their left over food
What are we, dogs?
They eat to fatten their flesh
They drink to stupor,
While hunger eat deep in our flesh
And thirst dries our very blood.
They bake the national cake with our sweat,
With our eyes we behold the beauty of it,
With our nose we smell it,
But the taste of it remains a mirage
The dinning room is filled with them,
Leaders of hunger and thirst,
Fat men with a belly of no satisfaction,
The more they eat the hungrier they become,
The more they drink, they thirstier they become
They are ambassadors of insatiable appetite
The dinning room,
It should be a place of clinking spoons,
And toasting cups of happiness,
But here, we meet nightmares that lead to our death
The death, we will all die
whether full or hungry, thirsty or hydrated
And their store house become a waste
