Robert Laurence Binyon - Hunger
Work rating: Medium

I come among the peoples like a shadow. 
I sit down by each man`s side. 
None sees me, but they look on one another, 
And know that I am there. 
My silence is like the silence of the tide 
That buries the playground of children; 
Like the deepening of frost in the slow night, 
When birds are dead in the morning. 
Armies trample, invade, destroy, 
With guns roaring from earth and air. 
I am more terrible than armies, 
I am more feared than the cannon. 
Kings and chancellors give commands; 
I give no command to any; 
But I am listened to more than kings 
And more than passionate orators. 
I unswear words, and undo deeds. 
Naked things know me. 
I am first and last to be felt of the living. 
I am Hunger
