governments come and go in uttar pradesh.. but the bhaiyya is an outsider in every state he goes, a photo by firoze shakir photographerno1 on Flickr.
beaten black and blue
with every hit and blow
he suffers silently
in every state he goes
selling dreams
hapus mangoes
strawberries
a pain time froze
one leader built
parks elephants
on his face shut
all doors so he
comes to slave
for others at
your shores
more despair
more remorse
a lungi a ghamcha
mustard oil
a working force
never lazy
the bhaiyya
rough tough
polite never
coarse
the river
ganges
his birth
his source
