The Cockroach In The Stew
He looked extremely thin
His skin pale
His eyes lacking matter
He said he rarely eat this days
Only when that malicious cockroach
Decides to go for a walk
The chef sat chin in hand
Her young face looked much older
She told me her life is being eaten away
"We rarely sell these days", she said
Only when the old cockroach
Goes for a minute walk
The village was so poor
With everybody restless
We work all day and night
Said the man I met
But everything we own isn't ours
There cockroaches take them all
