The repulsive black bags lay all around
the grimy children
as they pick their way through one by one
hoping to find something
to make their lives much less burdensome.
The children look
as if they didn’t know what a bath was,
covered in dirt, dust, grease,
and human waste.
Most wish they could have a normal life one day
away from the giant black bags
and storage containers they call home.
