a picture i took
of Bandra ..
a fairy tale book
of peace hope
humanity ,,,
the holistic
tabbaruk
if you live here
or even pass it by
it gets you
by the hook
bandra bazar
sleeping bylanes
sleeping corporators
sleeping municipality
kachra garbage in
every nook ..
here politicians
will come out
of hibernation
hands folded
faulty faceless
smiles ..for
that one vote
one last final
look..bandra
home of sandra
no her father was
not the son of a
seacook ..
bandra where
you will will
find more
clones of salman
than sharukh
a beggar poet
for once as an
actor was
accidentally
mistook
phata poster
nikla hero
a role i took
out of my
own fashion book
Eid Namaz -Eid Al Adha Bandra Station 2013
There was strict security at the Bandra skywalk when I reached here barefeet at the Bandra skywalk.. the only skywalk that has honed me as a photographer and a poet of sorts ..most of the drug addict community that inhabits this stretch to my ire call me photo wale uncle ,, nod my head nonchalantly ,,,in the late evenings the skywalk becomes lovers nook our own..Ek Bar Ana Bandra Town..
The homeless sleep here because the only police security on the skywalk is during the eid namaz .. so well I reached here with my new dog tag.. that now reads International Press Photographer ..the bottom line is International Blogger but in very tiny font as even Press guys are not yet aware of the true meaning definition of a blogger ,unlike them we just dont die after we are published .. we live on forever...our blogs do not reach the bhangarwalas shop at the end of the month.
This picture was shot by good friend Ritesh Uttamchandani..
I met other friends from the press like Rafiq Maqbool and missed the usual Facebook crowd of photographers .. I shoot the namaz and most religious events barefeet and for the first time shot all this with a glass piece stuck in my feet that I think I extricated at home after the shoot. I am still not sure as I am still limping..
This time the beggars were fewer , and I felt sad for them perhaps they had gone to other venues .. or at Bandra Reclamation where there is arrangement for ladies separately ..I owe my loyalty to the Bandra Station street namaz being a prolific street photographer ,,,and today as a tribute to Mr Raj Kumar Santoshi and Shahid Kapoor I wore the same dress that I wore for my short cameo in Phata Poster Nikla Hero..My fan following is among beggars and those that watch movies in the first row.. luckily they remember me more than the hero too.. because I am a Bandra guy.. a Bandra blogger and a Bandra Manoos.
And please note I shoot a story board so my Eid namaz pictures begin with garbage littered on the roads that lead to the namaz site Municipality only cares for one Religion the Religion of Kadak Note Than Than Gopal..and Nagad Narayan..
I Am The Fucked Product Of Circumstances
a copulated
thought divine
while swimming
freely my seminal
soul was caught
hook sinker line
within the poetry
of two beings
i was created
broken rhyme
entwined ,,,
in her cosmic
penitentiary of
womb a speck
enshrined
i made it ,,
just in time
pickled brine
on whom the
carrion will
surreptitiously
dine..rats rodents
eating the human
garbage even
swines ...because
i wont be buried
in a cemetery
end of my lifeline
washed away
as ashes on
some distant
shoreline
where she lives
happily ever after
my muse no she
never wanted to be
this poets concubine
a part of me
hangs on her hearts
clothesline...deleted
dreams bottomline
