Strands of Disarray

Strands of hairs on floors galore,

Papers and rags strewn over the tables,

Clothes on the sofa seats,hung on the chairs,

Cobwebs and spiders on the ceilings and walls,

Moldy food and vegetables in the kitchen,

Odors emanating from the washroom,

Cars dusty,air inside impure,

Courtyards and surroundings unkempt for days,

Garbage from the house dumped at the roadside,

Thrown on the drains, rills and rivers,

Perfumes and beauty products everywhere

Yes, there do exist people like this. Quite the contrast you have penned Akham. Season's best, Gershon
