Inside Jamaica

Back


Halls of Learning's robotics project in Jones Town provided the inspiration for Robotics Stimul-I. Struck by the people and images encountered through our work, we share with you a photo essay and inspired poetry both titled, Inside Jamaica: Each day we pass these faces Living in their confined spaces Sometimes surrounded by waste Most of them growing with the taste Of sufferation and despair And then add violence, gunshots ring through the air But still hardworking and full of pride So even in their eyes, they cannot hide The feigning of hope And so, they cope Some waiting and singing "betta mus come" Some sacrificing and plodding for the better, to come Some wishing for the wings of a dove Most surviving on the fumes of love Look inside Jamaica and see the crying need It might not be your neighbour, but you should take heed
