Protest and survive

streetward like running water their sudden protest

the life-time pain of people beyond answer in sleep

a green weather

rain for a dry season

how they swear and swear swallowing dust

Erasure poem derived from The Diary of Samuel Pepys, Saturday 4 April 1668

Dave Bonta

Learn by heart: tap a gap

streetward like water
the pain of people
