world hunger

you buy a bag
of cookies,
you are starving,
not literally,
it's not like
your tongue has
turned black, but
you are extremely
hungry and you
understand that
there may really be
people starving in
the world, which
makes you feel bad,
but it sounds good
to say you're
starving, and it's
a good excuse to buy
a family sized bag of
chocolate chip cookies.
you are on a mission
to stop world
hunger, starting with
yourself. and what
about world thirst.
isn't that a problem
too, but it's a secret
problem i think, one
that no one talks
about, so you buy
some two percent milk
to help erradicate
that problem too.
you pour yourself
a cool tall glass,
and you snap open
the bag of cookies
with your teeth,
you take a drink,
you put a whole
cookie into your
mouth. world hunger,
world thirst. it's
a fine start.
what's next?
