Creative Impressions:
Please, Sir, A Little More

Hunger is your gravest fear for survival.
We get very little to eat.
Please, sir, a little more.
We scrounge for food in the dirtiest places.
Please, sir, a little more.
We may kill for a scrap of food to get more.
Please, sir, a little more.
We are so weak from little to eat and hard work.
Please, sir, a little more.
Please, sir, don't hit me, sir; I just want a little more.
Please, sir, a little more.
We are not much more than skin and bone.
Please, sir, a little more.
I think I am going to die, I'm so hungry.
Please sir, a little more, a little more!
