december

I saw a lack of comprehension
    turn the nonchalant vicious
and watched with folded arms
    as we wrote elegies,
    and took photographs,
for empty universities, hospitals
sponsored by Coca Cola, a million
children handcuffed, spoilt -

I felt a different noise
    send an ugly biased reality
through the December streets
    red-nosed and bloody
    oblivious to etiquette,
for empty universities, hospitals
sponsored by Coca Cola, a million
children handcuffed, spoilt -

    Dreamt always of 2009.
