BROTHER MAN

Brother man

Give me your hand

I’ve come to share with you

The troubles of your land;

Rheumy eyes tell your story

With troubled gaze:

That your stomach so bloated

Is with hunger filled…..

That your fields so vast and golden

Are as thirsty as the plains of Hades

That your kin who once garnered

Now prostrate before the king’s table.

Long is the way to the king’s table-

But short is the cable

To a brother’s heart.

Brother man-

Clasp my arm with your claws…

Keep on at your pace;

Come with me to another time

Come with me to another place

Where MAN does for LOVE

Things we often do for MONEY!

See who come there….

In dark robes and white collar –

Trying to sell an old story;

Hold it mister white collar!

Another time – another place

Give hungry man bread

And he will be glad……

To call you brother.
