A Poem a Day: a Series – Day 16

Day 16: “To never understand”


Harsh realities

Life ends in death


poverty is ruthless

claiming victims

spiraling their lives

leaving them for dead


I watched a film

for a college class

about a life of death

in the lower class


my eyes rained

and my nose sniffled


I crawled into bed

and turned out the light
