When Real Becomes Reality Poem by Dorsey Baker

When Real Becomes Reality



Sharp finger
nails!
every color
in the world
of everyone
lust served
with the help
of a silver spoon
upon a full plate
is meat
so raw and bloody
everybody feels
something
but the rich
they feel nothing
when touched
by the trembling hands
of the poorest
of the poor
unthoughtful ones
they throw what
they don't eat
into the garbage can!
