Los Angeles Times Found Poem

"Paris Chokes on Pollution; City of Light becomes City of Haze" by Kim Willsher

Oh City of Light

I am trembling in fright

As I am afraid I'll never see

The beautiful light of thee

The air is so thick and gray

I might never see the day

One day I may suffocate

So please, clear up before it's too late

One day I may not see the Eiffel tower

So please, clear up like a beautiful flower

I miss the clear days of the City of Light

When everything was clear and bright

Oh Paris come back to me
