Pictures of Grenfell tower (Ekphrastic IP)

Pictures of Grenfell tower;
a black and blazing tower of horror;
of hopeless people and trapped screams
like the worst tragedy of terror
in Newspapers; on the TV and internet
are now a blazing symbol of corruption;
are now a blazing symbol of neglect;
of a government that does not care;
of the chasm between rich and poor;
of the terrorism of inequality
and though they try to cover it up,

their corporate manslaughter,
flames seem to burn out through it;
the towering establishment
seems to be shaking now;
their facade stripped away
and the anger of people now blazes;
people coming together and standing tall
as they demand justice and truth.
