Grinding poverty at home, hence the world feels like
Black smoke. Sacks of money you carry upon your
Shoulder- yet the money is beyond your reach.

Letters come in such great variety- people write
Out of amour, happiness, memories, longings
Out of sadness and grief. No one will ever read
The letter expressing his sorrow; the dreams of his
Life only the reeds under his feet will know.
In the villages and cities, no will ever know
Of his heartbreaks; in the black envelope of the night
