Vein Of A Disturbed Heart

Folder: 
Experience

Vein of a disturbed heart

From the filthy city, it was conceived

five minute stop for the wretched

sanctuary for the breadless

 

Vein of a disturbed heart

Paradise, they believe

Persistent alm taking

Insolence, they receive

 

Vein of a disturbed heart

Blood-shedding pen, I shall give

Remembrance to the ill-fated

Strangled by this society-taught deed

Author's Notes/Comments: 

A poem I wrote while I was in one of the smaller streets of Manila, where a beggar approached me and asked for money in which i refused to give. Please do give your comments and insights! constructive criticism is highly appreciated!
