Smog
Can we even call the s*** we breathe air?
The thick and poisonous smog
Fills your lungs
Fresh air is a precious treasure
For the world now
Oxygen: a rare encounter
In the city
Children coughing when they inhale,
Pollution and smoke enter your nose,
Fills your chest, and then your blood
And you cough and gag,
And choke on the smoke
