People shouting

Factory pollution

People rushing for the buses.

An accident here.

Vehicle inspection there

Hooters- non-stop

Thin dogs wonder

Through dirt and litter.

Water comes from the tap.

You hardly see a rabbit

You never see real darkness.

You pay for everything.

Your food, your fun,

And people

Keep spitting on the pavement.

(By Webster Mubonwa)

Kanyariri, village of Toil,

Village of unending work.

Life a never drying springs

Old women dark and bent

Trudge along with their hoes

To plots of weedy maize,

Young wives like donkeys

From cock crow to setting of the sun

Go about their timeless duties

Their scraggy figures like bows set in a row,

Plod up and down the rolling village farms

With loads on their backs

And babies tied to their bellies…

(By Marma Gashe)
