So In All Humility You Know Why I Cant Shoot The Lovely Landscapes That You Shoot

i shoot the tree
of humanity
overladen
with rotten fruits
on the soul
of her dead body
they build
new mosques
madrasas
as tribute
her spirit
of surrender
they salute
the sunset
of her life
on the street
of despair
i was destined
to shoot
her rotten flesh
covered in a shroud
her soul covered
in soot through
a picture
her doomed
fate i loot
her withered
branches
her withered roots
her surroundings
deaf dumb mute


right at the back is my grand daughter Marziya Shakir who has bought food to give to the beggars as the start of her birthday.. she too is a street photographer like me ...
