Hunger!

I am the colour of dirty clothes
of grimy ands and feet
I scour round at midnight
round tired beaten streets
I pad along aimlessly
looking for some scraps
some scraps that I can eat
some scraps to feed my hunger
in the shadow of the street
I spy a dirty dustbin
on the corner of the road
in which no doubt are goodies
carelessly been stored
My tummy rumbles endlessly
as I bound along the street
heading for that burger
that yummy inviting treat
I grab it, it and munch
it tastes a little off
but hey, I'm not complaining
it s delicious enough
The burger's nearly gone
I smile and smack my lips
when I spy a lonely mongrel
on the corner of the street
It watches me with mornful eyes
a hungry belly alright
come here little doggy
and have a little bite
Don't worry little doggy
there's plently for you too
after all food tastes a lot better
when shared with others too...
