Hunger For Truth
of diseases related to hunger.
And the same amount have died every day since then!!
(Like a jumbo jet fully loaded with children, crashing, every 20 minutes, every hour, every day.)
Nobody is reading their names to a Yo-Yo Ma cello suite.
(It would take more than a day just to read each day's toll.)
No tributes, no remembrances.
No public officials, movie stars or religious leaders are performing public grief.
No tolling bells, no "Amazing Grace".
No moments of silence, and certainly no delays in the Stock Market trading.
No speeches about grief, heartbreak, and mourning. No talk of heroes or victims.
No puffed-up pronouncements of waging a war on this nightmare.
No television broadcast extravaganzas, with picture-perfect emotion tugging scenarios,
costing in the millions, entitled perhaps "America Acknowledges". >
No mention that another Walmart store opens somewhere in the world every 2 days,
or that the world spends $781 billion a year on weapons.
Not even a Commemorative Historic Starving Child Clock!
