Hi Jaishree, Heartiest Congratulations on being chosen as the poetess of the day. A morsel of death is a beautiful poem of hunger and poverty. You have articulated and crafted the poem very well that showcases the pangs of hunger that eventually results in death. A sad yet intense poem. A full score for you Jaishree!
Brings to mind Victor Hugo's Les Miserables, whose protagonist is sentenced to 5 years in prison for stealing a loaf of bread to feed his family. Your work is a reminder that such circumstances are not limited by time or geography and is a biting indictment of humanity's failure to tend to our fellow brothers and sisters in their need. Congratulations on POD.
