Lucas Zulu, South Africa
my dreams
are made of turbines
crying and trying to swallow up
the damp air
my dreams
are made of emerald green
never cease to belch out
a breath of fresh air
my dreams
are made of turquoise
detoxifying the ochre haze
lemon grass wafting to my balcony
my dreams
are made of recycling
so keen to reuse
waste disposal
my dreams
are made of cycling more
driving less
to reduce my ecological footprint
