AGONIES OF A RIVERINER Born beside water Thrown into it to float, Grew up, a fish Survival, inside it. Born in the shanty Bred in the slum, Suffering in the ghetto Drowning in the island. No boat, no ship No bridge, no border Toxic waste, gaseous water Muddy water, moody life. Rains wash the farms Floods sweep the shelters, Rivers overflow their banks Tragedy booming the doom, Aquatic land, dead people.
