A poem on wings of hunger And beside, lay Mother weeping then on the floor, Brother lay dead like a breathless horse dead like a rat and skinned like a kwashiorkor child Thinker I don¨t think what others are thinking Because I don¨t think anyone should be thinking What I am thinking. I can¨t think what you think Because I know that thinking what you think Will make you think that all I think about Is what everyone that thinks is thinking I don¨t want to think what you are thinking So that I won¨t think when you think Because thinking when you are thinking Will make me think well than what you are thinking Think about what I am thinking And remember to think when others are thinking Because you think that what I am thinking Is something everyone that thinks has to think? Don¨t think as if you are thinking of what to think And think when everybody is starting to think Because thinking what I am thinking Will make me think you are a Wrong Thinker.
