World! World! Poem by Gencay

World! World!

Rating: 5.0


That is my life
Connected to respirator, low eyes
That is my life
African skinny boy.

That is my life
A suicide that can't bring bread to his house
That is my life
Always a heart attack, always a spasm.

Oh my life that
An orphanage full of big orphans
Oh my life that
The boy with no toys, in the old, torn clothes.

Yeah, my life that
A woman who has always been violent
Yeah yeah that's my life that
Unidentified torture who was raped.

What were we saying, huh
That is my life
Hungry naked animal lying on the streets
Oh, who is always without dreams.

That is my life
It is nature, its beauty taken away
That is my life
Burning alive, inanimate, disappearing.

That is my life
Illness, pain, aches and of course death
That is my life
A painful cruelty unloved.

That is my life
Friends
World! World!

World! World!
