Farts of a City
The city farts
from its many holes:
Vehicle tails, Power plant bums
metabolise petrol and coal.
Gosh! More holes! On fire
wood, dung and kerosene. On fire
city’s feces.
Ughh, this stinking smoke
enters my holes!
My eyes
I rub rub rub;
My throat
I cough cough;
My nose
I die.
Mask up, cityzen, Mask up
Turn on the purifier
Close your windows
Shoot the anti-fart gun
Bring home green plastic plants.
Alas, your lungs still burn
“What else to do?” You ask
“Eat less, eat clean,” Doctors say.
