head in a daze
body in a haze
feeling heavy, limbs sluggish

I wade through (not) a swamp
*** of broth, thick with fat
rich with meat, hint of green
cooked to melting, innards dissolving
into nothingness— and so the ***
thickens.

No thought, no movement, only
a deep laxation, eyelids drooping
down
           down
                      down
                                 down
                                            and I
**** awake, the bus has stopped— not
my stop, and the, dark, beckons to me
                                                          again

A lockdown of everything..

Of our arrogance
Of our mindlessness
Of our ignorance
Of our apathy
Of our cruelty
Of our carelessness

With the lockdown lifted..
Will we change for the better?

Better we do..!!!
