Rains heavily

in blurt •  4 years ago 

It rains heavily on tethered brown earth
Pink dust covers the road that leads to home
From where I stand the way forward is not known
I would ask the stars but I see them not
I seek refuge beneath the bones of my flesh
But my skin, black as bile sells me out
Mothers your daughters yearn for your touch
But fists strong as stones are served for breakfast.

My eyes see as much as they can bear
The face of he who spits on my head
Yet bread crumbs at his feet I feast on
While his club eats on my flesh.
If tears form rivers I'd float in an ocean of despair
Languishing at the sight of my very own visage
How different am I from him?
Yet he looks at me with dark steel puzzling eyes.
I fear my very own voice betrays me
As agonizing sobs break out of controlled breaths.
My broken ribs hurt less than the voice in my head
As my lifeless body coddles on the legs of the table
I listen to mumbles of what sorry disgrace I am.
I would say to myself I am special
Wondering how special if he says that to me
With that last thought I survive the night.

By 28th Feb next year, I'm hoping to accumulate a next worth of $40,000 and monthly income in excess of $2,000 .

To make this a reality, I'm willing to work for blurt blockchain if given the opportunity to showcase my skills. Have talked to friends to join blurt, and I'm hopeful we'll have them here.

Gozapata!!!!💪
