I Got Nothing Ma

I Got Nothing Ma

A Poem by Jean Calvin

On empty hands
Scarred by a lack of nourishment
Placed in them.
Though cream, crop and cash
Stain my fingertips,
But that's all you give.

And you don't understand
Why I don't understand
When I ask for more
And you refuse.

I hold out my empty hands,
Full of nothing that I want.
