Going Going Gone- Death of the Gaothan

Going Going Gone- Death of the Gaothan, originally uploaded by firoze shakir photographerno1.

all these old edifices and monuments
of heritage will one day be gone
instead of the east indian ethos
of the gaothan
new towers will be born
heralding a new dawn
the politician builder mafia
a nexus reborn
a past that the old residents
of banda bazar road mourn
their lives tattered and torn
hopes all outworn
a gloom their faces adorn
