Trousers Of Internment Poem by Anthony Weir

Trousers Of Internment

Rating: 5.0


My pants
covered in patches,
were rinsed by my wife -
but the suffering wouldn't wash out.

Like faded days
my pants hung on the Collective's door
on the rusty nail of Internment.

And the wind brought me from far-off the memory
of the unerasable face of poverty.
