Little Lipu Is Not Coming Back
Was it intentional or accidental
The poisoning of young kids
Through a free school meal?
Was it the cooking oil
Insecticides
That took their lives?
Or just persistent large scale
Ruthless corruption?
Whatever the answers
Lipu is not coming back
Neither are those other little bodies
In the back of a van
Covered in death
