To Pee Or Not To Pee

To Pee Or Not To Pee, a photo by firoze shakir photographerno1 on Flickr.

the thought
that they
may soon
add service
tax on peeing
or shitting in
public adds
to his fears
with no
public toilets
in the vicinity
his poop like
that of madams
pet dog he might
have to clear
he is fed up
of rising prices
he sees onions
onions onions
in his dreams
he has gone
deaf in the ears
almost blind
he was recently
booked for touching
a woman inappropriately
when he accidentally
touched her rear
with his walking stick
the lady thought
it was his private
part..before it
touched her
disappeared
he is confused
he went to meet
a saint a holy seer
who told him to go
take a spade and
dig at the cemetery
he will find gold
it will magically appear
he was caught by
the cops for digging
dead bodies he
was sentenced
for an year..
happy diwali
to all of you
happy new year
poems as pictures
pictures as poems
hopelessly sincere
a beggar poet
with no career
broken dreams
deleted dreams
fractured frontiers

The Poor Mans Temple On The Road

The Poor Mans Temple On The Road, a photo by firoze shakir photographerno1 on Flickr.

building
street temples
on the road
god is everywhere
it is told ..a prayer
is gods call on hold
only in india will
you find godmen
urging a dumb
government
to search for
hidden gold
but all the
treasures
stolen from
the public
lies hidden
in swiss banks
hundred fold
a tip of the
iceberg on
the threshold
under the houses
of ministers
bureaucrats
fortunes untold
in the caverns
of temples
a million fold
mans mind
is seeking
wealth without
toil..manifold
going round
round in circles
with a blindfold
moments
sometimes
hot and cold
pure religion
is respect for
men women
young and old
dont hit children
or scold.. humility
the essence of
every household
