The Hunger of the Suffering Man Sweating between his fingers, the agricultural man sweating in his thorax the musician sweating in his lungs the miner sweating in his nausea the existential man sweating in his refugee camp the Palestinian driven out by the Jew who has forgotten Auschwitz sweating in his ghetto the blackman sweating in his carapace the animal-man sweating when he escapes the innocent man sweating in their duodena the children battling the pigs on the garbage dump sweating the woman whose urgent sex brings me my brief joy sweating the poor man whose house starves between the thighs sweating the deadman, the marginal man who wants his bones enamelled in gold sweating the poor who died from the too, too rich sweating the bronze man who suffers them all sweating I who sing them! — Syl Cheney-Coker
