resonance and dazzle….<\/p>\n

summoning<\/p>\n

up-down and all around<\/p>\n
cramp sweat within<\/p>\n
pulsing rhythmic throb<\/p>\n
of city within a city<\/p>\n
feverishly buzz working<\/p>\n
to keep them both alive…..<\/p>\n
You pass us by<\/p>\n
In distance drift<\/p>\n
dismissively you wonder<\/p>\n
Who we are and how<\/p>\n
In such sorry state we live<\/p>\n
Hesitant curious glances<\/p>\n
With shrug or shudder<\/p>\n
for what lurks beyond<\/p>\n
the dirt dark dank<\/p>\n
of cluttered crowded maze.<\/p>\n
Asia\u2019s largest slum you think<\/p>\n
And thank god you have else<\/p>\n
You pass us by in distance drift<\/p>\n
Dismissively you wonder….<\/p>\n
We go about our own hard days<\/p>\n
And eke our daily living<\/p>\n
By toil and grimy sweat<\/p>\n
We make our dreams come true<\/p>\n
We see you as you pass us by<\/p>\n
In smug sheltered comfort glare<\/p>\n
dismissively we get back to life<\/p>\n
in turn we wonder about you…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
