Poems
Mar 2017
Cityscape
Chip shop
Next to a heart hospital
A labourer sleeping under his truck
Unmindful of the hay overload above
Kids guzzling bottled water
As they protest to save rivers
Leaders flying hundreds of miles
To reinforce the status quo
Orphans roaming the streets
Where couples queue up outside fertility clinics
The clothes that get skimpier
As the actress grows older
The lies that get bolder
As the mountain gets higher
Life is full of oxymorons
In the post-truth city of my mind
