A Beggar's Question

In every street

They celebrated 

Ram Navami

They offered 

All kinds of food

In the name

of Lord Rama

to every passerby

But a beggar

didn't accept

Their food

Rather

he shouted 

and told them:

Don't give me 

food, instead 

give me answer

to my question -

In this largest

democracy

Why do I have

to beg yet?
