a muslim 
begs from 
a muslim 
as he begs
 from christain 
or a hindu 
begging 
a curse on 
humanity 
kills the soul 
of mankind 
it is true 
the milk 
of human 
kindness 
has 
curdled 
all through
pain 
on the streets 
forever 
bestrewed 
fate has 
bestowed 
out of the blue 
in more ways 
than him 
one who 
offers 
charity 
is a beggar too
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

I See What God Sees Too
Man Child in a Zoo
He is a man child cub in a zoo 
endangered specie its true 
on the verge of extinction 
a thought hackneyed but new 
with his back to the world 
a world of hate he left behind
a world of sorrow and suffering 
he outgrew 
now he eats only what 
he can chew 
his ancestors once upon a time
roamed the wilds 
till evolution charged their intellect
they became from apes
men categorized as Christians Muslims and Jews
assorted races Buddhist Sikhs Parsis Jains  Hindus 
using religion as a weapon 
their own kind without impunity
they mercilessly slew 
political powerplay 
 man destroying man 
a heady intoxicating brew 
phew 
a god who created them 
they killed on the cross 
now by killing 
those that did not kill him
pay off their forefathers
unpaid dues 
suicide bombers 
misplaced martyrdom 
proselytizing  the human soul
with any available excuse 
Justice as a precondition
to Peace and Freedom
The only solution 
for a global truce 
a comment by paige perris island who deleted her flickr account 
shaped by light
or sorrow
the future of this man
child lies within
his charms and
his wiles, his ability
to beguile.
his smile will take him
far and his past
will recede like a vapor trail
from a jet traveling
east to west,
his choice, what is best
for him and the rest
of his cadre.

Marefat Unkao milti hy,
Jinki Akido'n me YAKEEN hota hy
Dikhawe se kuch nahi hota
Pairwi-e-Ahlebayt se Parwaz-e-Jannat hota hy
Maaon ko sikha Saani-e-Zahra
Maaon ko sikha Saani-e-Zahra (a.s.) ka saleeqa
Behnoo ko Sakina (a.s.) ki duaoon ka asr dey
Muflis pay lal-o-jawahir ki ho barish
Maqrooz ka har qarz ada ghaib say karday
Jo chadar-e-Zainab (a.s.) ki azadaar hain Maula
Mehfooz rahain aisee khawateen kat parday
Gham koee na dey hum ko siwa’ay gham-e-Shabbir(a.s.)
Shabbir (a.s.) ka gham baat raha hai to idhar day
My Daughter Remembers Me On Fathers Day

an alcoholic stupor 
blocked my way 
now with shadows 
broken dolls 
as dreams 
she loves 
to play 
if i could 
turn the clock 
back 
a thought 
that plays 
3 grand daughters
as my penance 
as they sit 
on my chest 
bringing 
back 
my daughter 
from far away 
a tear drops 
rolls down my 
cheeks 
from my dark 
memories 
i cant 
get away 
a fucked 
father 
on fucked 
fathers day
