Fast flowing road <br />Is the straits of the town. <br /> <br />A flood of comely faces <br />In hotels, shopping plazas and parks <br />Wafts of cologne fragrance <br />Forming angle after angle <br />Of lines, dashes and circles <br />Of body cultures. <br />Desires not unlike tar <br />Vitriolic relationships <br />Dreams falling into sewer of time <br />Poison of muddy tears <br />Smouldering, half extinguished <br />Sleep perched on eyelashes <br />Bodies, stinking-dead-tired <br />Tyranny in sleeping rooms <br />Warth of nearness entwined with distance. <br /> <br />Fast flowing road <br />Is the straits of the town.<br /><br />Naseer Ahmed Nasir<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dreams-falling-into-sewer-of-time/
