Sad Little Houses
Amparo R. Asuncion
The sad little houses,the poor little houses
Crowd by the riverside;
The holes in their roofs,the crack in ther walls,
Vainly they tried to hide
The strench of the river,the dark,muddy river
Is with them night and day;
Pure,fresh air may be had for the moving,
But they cant move away.
They can only stand by the bank of the river
Buried knee-deep in day;
They can only stare at the drifting garbage,
Until they,too,decay.
And pass away into ghost of houses
Killed by a burning sun,
Smothered with dust and then forgotten-
Forgotten by everyone.
