A Sam Scott poem:
2nd October 2023
-----
Listen to poem:
The landscape has been clouded by dust
The skyline vanishes as the definition
Between the hope of sky
And the dismal reality of the ground
Pervades and creeps
The red luscious heart
Is tempered, not fully destroyed
Shadows creep in the debris
Thoughts of that past life
Flickering in the enforced dusk
Memories of suburbia
Laughing, chatting, walking
Discussing nothing
Meaning everything
Breathing in the freshest air
No dogs barking now
Some humans weeping
We have some work to do
Time may still be on our side
In the process of utopian restoration
