The Albino Boy

The Albino Boy, a photo by firoze shakir photographerno1 on Flickr.

on the toilet
seat of life
thinking
dreaming
as he cries
what will i
be when i
grow up
he rubs
his eyes
the day
time he
begs
on the
mound
of hope
filled
with flies
as one
day is
born
another
day dies
his white
shell of
a skin
held in
a cosmic
vice
