Koshe Means Dirty-Ethiopia 11th Of March 2017



Beautiful, sweet life
the permanent smell of rubbish
Beautiful, sweet life
in the garbage I'm looking for something to eat
Beautiful, sweet life
I built my home in the dump
Beautiful, sweet life
What others throw, is my fortune
Beautiful, sweet life
A crack I heard fronm the garbage hill
Beautiful, sweet life
I was buried under tons of things you consider useless
Beautiful, sweet life
In dirt I lived, in dirt I died

Thank you Edward. I'm not claiming that I know how it is to live in such places. All my knowledge comes from what I read.
