The Black Hole of Silence

The Black Hole of Silence, originally uploaded by firoze shakir photographerno1.

My work space
is next to a shop
that sells
sanitary ware ..
i look at them
poetically
my thoughts
i bare
each time
i see the toilet seat
i know the only
time we are human
our humanity share
relieving a ritual
on the toilet seat
or on the road
somewhere
getting rid
of our delusions
our bad dreams
our despair
a messy job
beyond compare
everybody
has sat
on this seat
of wisdom
kings
religious heads
poets writers
political hacks
without fan fare
the black hole
of silence
that leads
nowhere
