Avian Compassion

Avian Compassion Revolting as the world can be Another war another drought No food no shelter empty shells Displacement dire dereliction Oblivious flies on broken skin Macario the blessed one awaits Knowing that there is no place In agony has given up on life No dreams no destiny just Desert demise emaciated ‘Nothing’ forgotten cast aside Eviscerated vulture fare the bird Shares a mutilated random carcass So much for human acts of kindness 28th January 2017

Indeed, nothing compared to human acts of kindness, where vultures do anything but share the wrong acts. Congratulations on your placement, Kai :)
