The Student Bar

The student bar

I went there just to see
All the decency lost
Nudity everywhere
Parents don't have a clue
The Noise , the drunkness ,the drama
Pretense celebrities
I went there just to see

Embarrassed to say, words fail me
A mere look tells you all
This place, a reflections of the horrors of our society
A little hell
When do they grow up
I just went there to see
All the chaos , flying bottles

Church people, oh i am embrassed to say
Those smiles and that socialising unity
Beauty distorted, love measured
The height of the voices
I just went there to see but what i saw i am embarrassed to say.

Monterey Sirak Date: 11/14/2013 6:53:00 AM Wonderful descriptions. I can tell by the images in the poem that you immersed yourself in the scene, not just imagined it. Well done. And welcome to the soup. Login to Reply Tawona Mzila Ranganawa Date: 11/14/2013 7:33:00 AM Thank you

David Fisher Date: 11/13/2013 8:50:00 PM Enjoyed your poem and how you narrated it as if the bar was to be studied. I liked the contrast.
