The Fallen Man

The Fallen Man, a photo by firoze shakir photographerno1 on Flickr.

He was a common sight at Bandra Bazar Road , a drunk, who lived with an amputated leg, he had a Jaipur leg that was stolen while he was in one of his drunken sleeps ..

I shot him a lot ,than he disappeared , and the garbage vans missed him every time as he lay on the garbage heap.. he was once a rich affluent person I am told and than came the perilous downfall ..

Bandra is full of sad tales

riches to rags
lying on the road
a path jagged
drunken stupor
as tongues wag
his fall was
imminent
to his grave
he was dragged
from all sides
by stray dogs
attacked
courage to
fight back
he lagged
now he is
merely a
missing tag
