Sunwar
Tonight, we hazard devastated streets, We parade underneath crumbling concrete,
The sun scorches the bruised sky and then slumps,
We drown in dusk as detonations thump.
In the square, amplifiers are arranged, And feral soldiers, their eyes disturbed, deranged,
Where Death’s penurious shadow awaits,
Our landlord, eternally bloating his rates.
The foreign musicians’ song begins,
To liberate us from jingoist sin,
We reach for the court's open canopy, Delivered, delighted, in rhapsody.
We look to tracers, wishing stars above,
For this to last and warmongers to love,
My lover strokes my cheek and presses near,
An ardent cuddle, tears to cleanse all fear.
The singer smiles at the sheer abandon,
Adolescents flirt to find companions,
A man flings up arms, a hostage released,
A child giggles as though cured of disease
