(Picture taken by Kevin Carter)
If you can picture a dying African baby
pipe cleaner thin nothing but a pick of meat
croutched like a Mohamadan praying
as a vulture stalks just feet away
waiting to feast upon this carrion.
If you can picture this:
please take a photograph
to offend civilisation.
Imagine,
needle sharp beak
knitting on the corpse
gouging flesh, tugging
at a tangle of heart strings.
