his failed
attempt
to rise
i shoot
man
perhaps
god in
disguise
on the
road

for being
born man
he pays
a price
a misplaced
sacrifice

god where are you..., a photo by firoze shakir photographerno1 on Flickr.

you must be
somewhere
around
though i
cant see
you ,,,
god where
are you
caught
in the vortex
of suffering
despair doom
i ask you
god where
are you
my life
to me
is of
no value
a residue
moving
on my back
i continue
the pain of
unliving i cant
subdue ..
a pause
your shadow
i pursue
beyond this
i have
no clue

oh god
where are
you ,,,

Did She Manage To Escape The Cage Of Doom

Did She Manage To Escape The Cage Of Doom, a photo by firoze shakir photographerno1 on Flickr.

the beauty
of innocence
held against
her will captive
in a room..
the cage of
doom..
her wings
clipped
dark shadows
loom..this
was not what
she expected
of life ,, when
she stepped
out of the
womb..
from light
back into
a darkroom
the girl child
as she walks
towards a tomb
en caved hope
also in a vacuum

Beggars Of India Unite, a photo by firoze shakir photographerno1 on Flickr.

who will
send you
to the rajya
sabha
to voice
your pain
your sufferings
your fight
who will
represent you
i see no one
in sight
politicians
really dont
care for you
they certainly
dont care for
your plight
dumb deaf
disabled
limbless
handless
legless those
without sight
lead kindly
light ,, acid
burnt faces
of women
who became
beggars
scars hidden
from daylight
beggars on
the soul of
a nation
treated as
termites
those
unfortunate
creatures
robbed of
their rights
who become
beggars
overnight
beggars
no respite
their cause
who will
re ignite
lost illusions
lost world
of beggars
yesterday
today tonight

Mind Is Greater Than Matter

Mind Is Greater Than Matter, a photo by firoze shakir photographerno1 on Flickr.

what you
see what
you dont
see is not
what matters
what you
perceive
on the soul
of your
imagination
animatedly
a figurative
thought
scatters
does it
really
matter
you cant
have
everything
on the
platter
