She lives beneath
the umbrella
cum rain or shine
she shits bathes
dines
of standing up
ever on her two legs
she shows no sign
her life is miserable
monotonous
but she looks fine
when it floods during
the monsoons
she her bent spine
but she never
complains grumbles
or whines
she is my
street inspiration
i share her pain
her pathos
with you online
to a living grave
her dead life
confined
her few clothes
she dries
on the stones
no clothesline
who is she
what is she
a human
bloodline
hidden away
from the chaos
cacophony
of newspaper
headlines
on the mound
of a blog
her decrepit
decadent
decaying
soul
enshrined
dreamless
dilemma
as she waits
for her turn
on a receeding
coastline
her winkled brow
her wrinkled hands
her fucked lifeline
