In spite of us is about looking at the struggles of daily
life around the world through the lens of poetry.
In
spite of us
In spite of us the days drag on
and the misery slowly grows,
the footsteps on the carpet,
the artillery in the air.
In spite of us a child goes on
in his struggles all alone,
the concrete walls, the stink
of slime, the howls of feral
cats.
In spite of us the jungles
burn,
the streets turn black and our
people lose their souls.
In spite of us the broken
doors,
the screams, in spite of all of
us
inside of all us is this
yearning
to be free.
