Kit Kelen #1412 - still here

1412

still here

beyond a miracle

sun with

focuses the mind

this fire

I thought it was the koel

but went with my breathing  

a smoke wheeze

now the sky’s pale

eerie sun

still here

car’s packed

all these years of us

and yet

skin on

yet to cook

it’s an education

was once to keep the country

thousands of years no one dug

all knew

what planet

wouldn’t wish for

all irony intended

not even fire is safe from us

the rumoured survival

is all exaggeration
