The Long Tie Beggar Of Bandra Hill Road, a photo by firoze shakir photographerno1 on Flickr.

these were
his good days
at bandra hill
road near
the police station
was his begging place
a letter in his hand
a long tie silently
he asked for money
dressed in clothes
blackish gray
than came bad
times very bad time
gangrenous legs
near bhaba hospital
bus stop he sat
on a chair ,, his
pain his drowsy
stare ..in very bad
state in need of care
i dont see him
anymore perhaps
he died ,,, a body
beyond repair
his white tie
his fuzzy hair
an icon
a landmark
a unique
beggar
like him
nowhere
