"One Day I'll Write Sbout This Place.." by chronos: 4:04pm On Jan 12, 2016 |
One day I'll write about this place.. It's skewed terrace and shanties Enmeshed in petulant disarray Naked children ridden with mud gleefully Gliding on red earth Arms slim from hunger Their stomach filled with lack Their tears overflow to the banks of the Ganges The elders lay siege to the farmlands Their miserly harvest A gift of the gods Upon these boulevards of misery The gospel of hope resonates in the distance The love beneath the tears The beauty in the struggle The echoes of hope buried in titanium Vaults.. Cc lalasticlala ...let's promote this section |

chronos: I'd like to think I'm of Egyptian descent. I'm from a nomadic background. I've never researched tbh I chose the moniker because my rasta friends call me a Nubian Queen |
