On Matunga Road
Outside their shanties
uncamped
Hijdas Chakkas
They stand
Holding
Their soul mates
Hand
Feelings
Degenerated
Disintegrated
Dehydrated
Defoliated
Time wont expand
Supply and demand
Fishes out of water
asthamatic
un breathing
wheezing
on dry land
karma crushed
dharma wavers
unplanned ..
destiny destroyed
unmanned
strands of
pearl like tears
weeping on the sands
feminine frailty
feminine frivolity
feminine joviality
in no mans land.
A funereal march
Sepulchral silence
Shenailess no band.
shenai is a flute like musical instrument played at funerals and weddings its popular exponent was Late Bismillah Khan..who played the shenai , walking barefeet on Ashura the 10th day of Moharam.
