words

words, as termites on decaying wood
blankets my days & nights…

black, white, and multi-coloured
systematically woven texts….

rape, communal violence
ethnic cleansing & murder & farmer suicides
nuclear bombs, political encounters
all reduced to lines & columns
neatly arranged amidst pics of bulging boobs
threatening six packs ....

the whole country feeds on it
as pigs on shit, knowing not
just to be another ‘quality feed’
on the fascist’s table

oh mother,
termites, black & white
and multi-coloured
eat into my brain…
