On My Blindness

On My Blindness, originally uploaded by firoze shakir photographerno1.

i would still be a photographer

shooting the darkness around me
i would not have to shoot
the darkness within me anymore
my world and your world
seen through
my eyes would be pitch black
with a bit of help
i would still cut my head
on ashura and chehlum
i might not
be able to browse
google chrome
google buzz
facebook
flickr
twitter
and the fucked websites
i have shat on one time or the other ..

i wont have to shoot hijras

the one person
i might be cut up not being able to see is Marziya Shakir

i can write a lot but my failing eye sight does not permit me till i really go blind..

this is an obituary on my diabetic blindness
