Graffiti at The Bat
You may say it is an illusive
Caressing of bruised ego
The wealthy voice of the indigent
Shouting tongue-in-cheek on the wall:
Rich people are so poor
The only thing they have is money
For those who hear with the heart
The gospel on the wall is clear
Poor people are so rich
They can read the poverty in riches

oh my word mphutlane, what genius irony…
living in durban now and going to the bat centre regularly, i too see the sight-grabbing graffiti there, and who would’ve thought that someone may view it the way that you do… Amazing thoughts, with such colourful greys!
I do, however, wonder what you have to say about those who survive inbetween the capatalist and the poverty-ridden society…
