I saw her
I bent down
level
to level
with her eye
I could
see tears
as they
began
to flow
like a stream
running by
her pain
her sighs
her silent cries
within her
hijab
was
motherhood
a lost paradise
from the shame
of living
a Muslim
beggar
woman
in a painful
morbid disguise
hope
searching for
quietude
on the streets
where
she lies



an attempt at photography dedicated to glenn losack..
