Born in Captivity

Born in Captivity
Originally uploaded by flickr photographerno1

girl child
enforced nativity
birth and no pity
mean streets
pavement
footpaths
heartlessness
of a heartless
Mumbai city
begging
drugged
on the waist
of another child
life living
adaptability
beggar mafia
for a few coins
torture
atrocity
death
when it comes
steals the last vestige
of human dignity
cremated by
bandra municipality
a nameless tag
a numbered
anonymity.
