Shame, Documented

after ire’ne lara silva

thirsty and hungry for days shame*  /  no shower shame  /  dog pound in chain-linked cell with 

thirty other children shame      /   drink from toilet because water tastes like bleach and chlorine

shame           /   you don’t get clean clothes shame     /   we don’t wear tight clothes like in your country
