Nauru




Open jerry can, full
cigarette lighter, poised
Schick razor for lacerating
soft white wrists, scarred
 bedsheet noose, snared
fire blankets, rationed
hydrant, expired
W H & S training, tick


Acres of white gravel
hobnailed, crunch
And rows of ticky tacky
All made the same
marijuana traded for sex
open sewers, incubating
grey linoleum, bulge
fluorescence, pop


The Pacific Solution!
