Dr Sunil’s evocative poem, exclusively for Different Truths, is about a forgotten warehouse, scarred by time, that mirrors the city’s unseen wounds in the sunrise.
Dawn
bleeds on the
splintered
window-glass, of
an abandoned warehouse,
along the
railway tracks, overgrown
with grass.
The wounds
raw and purple
reflected
by
the glass, a Banksy
painting in real-time.
