Depth
The lines on the foreheads have deepened
Many salty lakes have emerged on the black surface
The entire expanse of the sky has shrunk
around us
The world has become a mere two feet
A mud house, small children, oxen, goats, and
a small patch of land
Beyond this is a thick wall
How will we survive without a farm and a home?
What world can be different from this?
Why does coal emerge beneath this land?
But whom should we be angry at?
Our fate, ancestors, Sing songs of fire
Before us lies pitch darkness,
It is sinking deeper into the earth
The body is transforming into black stone
This coal contains the bones of our ancestors
Would people be displaced like this
if coal were white?
The eyes are burning like embers, like a coal mine on fire...
Thanks you so much for reading. Have a great day 😊🙏 @vikbuddy
