Tweaking The Soul of Adversity

as a street photographer
the hostility of pain
is not always a bluff
tweaking
the soul of adversity
a task very tough
being a poet
a remark off the cuff
seeing all this
littered on the streets
my soul says
enough is enough
edges all rough
an empty stomach
children
not sufficient
food stuff
allah ho akbar
the muezzins call
reverberates
on the soul
beyond that
earmuffs
adversity
poverty
bad luck
her fate
handcuffed
a husband
sickly at home
tuberculosis and cough
