Riyadh

The city of dust

in sepia colours

the same as the past –

Will all of this last 

or gets rebuild and khalas?

Wade Evans road dividers

build nets like a spider

and drive you around

though traffic lock down,

with cars full of scratches

your journey here stretches 

into hours of wait,

you’ll be just a little bit late,

but nobody minds it,

Middle Eastern time zone

the concept of time here

runs slower than home…

inshallah we will work it 

inshallah we’ll see

a little bit messy but that’s the way it has to be.

Welcome to Saudi Arabia <3
