Karma Police Angel Gabriel

I read to learn

In search of knowledge to educate myself 

On what it takes to make the grade 

But nothing has touched me thus far 

Still numb listless and overcome 

By Sight,  Sound , Taste and Touch

Nothing new to see here 

Disengaged as a Career Choice 

A Silent Voice with Black Eyes and Deaf Ears 

To Feel with Sunburst Skin

A Street Hustler Soap Seller on a Crossroad Junction

Trying to eek out an Honest Living

Cooking under the Midday Sun

Watching the Godless Prosper

Driving past in Foreign Cars decked out in Bespoke Suits

With my only Rebuke 

Karma will be Hell to Pay
