The Drunken Soul of Man

The Drunken Soul of Man, originally uploaded by firoze shakir photographerno1.

What does the child see
the drunken soul of man
in surrendered silence
the beginning of an end finally
the rise and fall
of a soldier of humanity
society passes him
by unsparingly
oh he is a drunk
just let him be
on the sidewalk of life
enslaved and free
on his face even
a dog lifting his leg
will insolently pee
