Outstretched hands asking for the next meal
Unchained smiles; calyxed bud.
Scene of grassroot rebellion
Blades of grass pushing through
Cracks of dry mud.
Grey silhouettes dot the horizon
Damp walls hold frenzied graffiti
Defiant colours of young blood.
Yellow orbs professing love
Through a sea of virtual text
Thumbed in haste, blush rud.
Hope shows in gnarled trees,
Dark clouds, scraped knees,
Not every moment is congealed
in clotted blood.
