Malnutrition

By Jibril Mohamed

Malnutrition
Is poor nutrition’
There is bad perception
Unique to each nation
For more explanation
Read my articulation
based on inspection
And actual observation
By a poet with distinction!

Under nutrition
Is a common notion
In the Southern poor nation
With a clear justification
Lack of food for consumption
And widespread TB/AIDS infection
Are two factors in combination
Which lead to thin isolation!

Over nutrition
Is common notion
In the western rich nation
Without an exception
There’s negative sensation
Towards fat population
They face stigmatization
Obesity is the conversation!
