Shacks stacked
Corrugated walls
Tetering high
Rambling high
Shambling streets
Congested flesh
Diluted souls
Wasted lives
One hundred
Million dollars
Empty rooms
Cloudy palace
Rooms

Poem a day challenge #322 (The Gap)
The Gap
By Scott Bailey © 2014
Two esteemed academics
In high-definition
In a stately home
Discussing Disraeli
Meanwhile
In another land
Another world
A young girl awakes
In the slum
Steels herself
For another long day of work
Man after man after man
And in between the two?

Poem a day challenge #258 (Water Water Everywhere)
Water Water Everywhere
By Scott Bailey © 2014
The rich man on Thames has a sunken garden
Water so deep the duck house has floated
Away
So now
Money is no object for their relief
And the satirists
Whet their knives
