Replying to a comment on:
Voice of the World (Free verse) by Dovina
They call us Third World
below the Second
below the First
because we have less
produce less
suffer more
But three are really one these days
we can help you understand
come and let us show you
hear the One World voice
Osama gives us food
teaches kids to read
Musharraf gives promises
and sewage in the street
Work all day to buy a chicken
or dine on scraps of rich
donât say we have democracy
and allies in the West
Fill not the mouth of famine
if you fear to make us strong
but feed the brains of young ones
not yet won to jihadâs cause
Come and give them options
show them one big world
maybe we will kill you
maybe they will not
