Each And Every Minute Poem by richardo posto

Each And Every Minute



My life is ok

the children play

I turn on my faucet

I fill my cup.

I go to the toilet

and flush it away


But the distant slum

plays a different score

doo doo in a bag

throw it into the street

The water gets dirty

the kids get sick



Is it true what they say?

Yes, every minute of every day

A child dies from diarrhea untreated

A little star fallen, gone, untweeted.
