The Veil Of Distress



sitting
in a corner
life in a mess
begging away
fleeting moments
of his illness
a barter of hope
for a few coins
your children
they bless
the beggars
of bandra
no permanent
address ..
i once asked
her why does
she not work
she answered
no qualification
uneducated
no testimonial
a reference
she needs
too possess
also the sick
child takes
much of her
time she
stressed
so begging
is the easiest
way out
more or less
so every
muslim beggar
has a tale
to express
humanity
at its lowest ebb
as we progress
unless we
the state society
rehabilitates
them no success
