Disparity

Release of World Hunger Statistics


Burgers—
grilled,
griddled,
smothered
with caramelized onions,
cherry tomatoes,
sautéed mushrooms—
served on a buttered
toasted sesame roll

today
20,864 people
died of hunger




April National Poetry Month
Day 10 prompt: suffering

Fantastic! My mouth was watering in anticipation, with those vivid details - and then, the sparse and poignant ending. Wonderful!
