- I was hungry
- and you formed a humanities club
- and discussed my hunger.
- Thank you.
- I was imprisoned
- and you crept off quietly
- to your chapel in the cellar
- and prayed for my release.
- I was naked
- and in your mind you
- debated the morality of my
- appearance.
- I was sick
- and you knelt and thanked God
- for your health.
- I was homeless
- and you preached to me
- of the spiritual shelter of the
- love of God.
- I was lonely
- and you left me alone--
- to pray for me.
- You seem so holy;
- So close to God;
- But I'm still very Hungry,
- and lonely,
- and cold.
