i'm still a child...

.

death is drizzling
towering powers are decorated with caring corpses
proud-covered monotonous lines meet
planes crash horizontally
dots die undramatically
roads lie
leaders leak
polluting the soul
jealousy is still snowing
bleak bells jingle
poets compete to wear the emperor's new clothes

    btw, your new avatar is so meaningful...
    it reminds me of a story i read when i was a little kid... and loved so much... in which a snowman called baba-barfi (snow daddy) bakes lots of bread for some children all through the night... when the sun rises, well... you can guess the rest...

  5. .

    emperors rule
    poets cheat
    leaders lead
    pilots direct
    and passengers follow
    they have all lost
    the child
    who cries out the truth
