No more
tears to cry
thirst and hunger
have calcified my ducts
and the pain of crying
succumbs
to the pain of dying
in the dust
unnourished
like a stone
embedded
in a dry wadi
the earth is thirsty
it too is hungry
a n d c r i e s
how do I
feed myself
in a land of plenty
that has nothing . ?
a land
where
you can’t rest
your search
‘c a u s e . .
if you rest
you
s t a r v e . !
a land :
where
the corrupt
is . .
corruptible
beyond measure
I s a y . !
let them bleed
from
the end
of a r o p e
