Fly into SPACE but feed the BILLIONS DOWN HERE!

   

Fly into SPACE but feed the billions DOWN HERE!

As I was gloating and floating

Knowing , sharing the

Space achievements the mars

Landings, Asteroid missions,

Voyager leaving solar systems

Space colonization and living there

My ego ballooned up and

And filled up the whole universe!

Oh, my! I know a lot!!

An inner voice called me

It is fine about your space knowing , sharing

What you do for the poor blokes down here?

They, are starving crushed to death by the

Ever-existent hunger, unfilled bellies,

Don’t know about your outer space up there

They sure know about the space inside their stomach

As it keeps reminding them with the burning hunger

Track the count down to space,

forget not the countdown to hunger time!

It sure enough a prick on my ego balloon

To bring it crashing down to earth

Whoosh!, racing down, crash, thud!

Back on Earth-

My mind went into an overdrive

Have I not offered to work for

Eradicating poverty, hunger

Through science?

Sharing my knowledge on heathy food

Nutrition and health?

Yea, I  did

I offered to work with the hunger feeders

The non profits, agencies and the Govt

My image made no impact on them

May be I am a tiny peck on their horizon

To find with their naked eyes!

It is now for them to find me on the

Health sky to find this tiny dot

Let them click, enlarge to study me in detail

And my contents as the astronomer do

About a cosmic body probing inside out

For the time being this peck

Baths the earthlings down here

With the knowledge rays

On a limited scale

Who knows the peck may intensify

On it’s own accord

‘into a dazzling body for the sake of earthlings

Nature, God whoever empower me

Energise me to shine on my own

Reaching the far reaches of the world

Let the likes of me grow in size

Making a team of nebulae galaxy clusters like in space

A team larger is better than a team of single!

Come on , come on , come on my brethren!

Energise yourselves, glow and flow

To join me!

Let us bath and shower the whole millions

The billions and trillions back on Earth

To have their stomach space full

And feel contented, happy!

Explore the world, fly into space

But Feed the hapless billions first

That would be fine gen-next!

To forget the co-brethren

And go about ventures on earth, into space

Is a sin never to be forgiven

Let us not be sinners

But winners in staving off hunger, poverty.

Bringing in prosperity and happiness all around

Let it happen from this very moment

Count down to track hunger time begins!

9, 8,7,6,5,4,3,1,0!

Blast!

Ignite, spread , conquer!
