Alive In a Poisoned World
I wake, I eat
I bathe, I shop
I cook, I survive.
Minutes, seconds
Tick by
And I survive.
I communicate with friends
Never knowing if I will ever
See them again.
Or if they will fade
Into obscurity
Like the thousands before them.
This is what it's like
To be alive in a poisoned world.
And the seconds tick by.
