the helpless morning rush

Writer's picture: Aqeel ParvezAqeel Parvez

forever

moving

as if owned

by invisible wires


dragged

in every

di-rec-tion


the

helpless

morning

rush


millions of ants

so insignificant and little

but driven


an american disposition

for ambition


all

marching

marching

marching

as one


to an invisible hell



This poem was previously published in the chapbook 'The Streetlights are Beckoning Nirvana' (Analog Submission Press)
