One of the owners of Lucky Hotel Bandra Safar Ali Bhai is a Maulaiee a devoted Shia and humility personified...an Iranian but a pucca Indian Safar Ali Bhai is mostly at the mosque  during prayer time and walks  from his hotel and back from the Shia Mosque at Bandra Bazar.
A very gracious human being absolutely polite I salute him and spent some time chatting with him at his hotel.
I am street photographer a beggar poet .. I shoot misery cavorting with hope I shoot original content. I am Shia Sufi Hindu all in One

the homeless 
will continue 
living out their 
lives starting 
from scratch 
if i may say so 
the crime branch 
will try to find 
out the cause 
as time flows 
houses make 
shift tents 
rows and rows 
from the ashes
the dying spirit 
of a people arose 
pain like weeds 
on the soul of our
 beloved city grows  
who lit the fire 
someone knows 
a supari a contract 
a hypothetical 
assumption 
poetic and prose 
adding to misery 
the peoples woes 
sometimes your best 
friends can be your
worst enemies 
your foes 
surrender 
succumb 
to the path 
god chose 
when the rains come 
some more fateful blows 
who cares if the child begs 
for him his school a chapter closed

Sundar Vetkar has a camera clinic beneath the stairs and only 3 people can be accommodated at any given time  including the client his assistant and himself. and this is prime space in Fort Mumbai.. off Bora Bazar .
When my camera gives me trouble I give it to him , and he charges me a very nominal amount from what is charged in the market the reason he says in his words ..Firozebhai your camera is a healing tool you shoot humanity I cant charge you , you dont make money through your photography...how can I charge you.
 I force money into his refusing hands I dont want to dent my self respect or his.
So there are good people in the camera trade and there are others who rape you in the name of friendship with your clothes on.. and the one I am referring to knows this already I have stopped going to his shop completely.

without the hijras on the trains
train travel would be such a bore 
they add color to dull surroundings 
clapping their hands some more 
you certainly cannot escape them 
they are part of your karmic journey 
pay them before you hit the floor 
if they were given jobs in the railways 
as ticket collectors railway cops 
i think there would be less corruption 
a thought for mamtaji honor dignity 
to the railways the hijras would restore 
but than on another level if the hijras 
ran this country scams would be 
shown the door progress peace 
golden times like never before 
we would not be raped sodomized 
by a system as we snore 
no CWG no 2G spectrum 
no adarsh no other bilious 
monstrosity peace prosperity 
good rapport utopian poetic 
a possibility we must 
certainly not ignore
