For The Eminent Photo Journalists Of Mumbai Eid Is A Hug

editorial constrains
says the editor this
is what the public
wants hearts it must
tug.. cute children
hugging each other
on the prayer rug
good strong bear
hug..be sure to get
wild open smiles
on their mugs ,

media photography is half empty half full jug
the poor photo journalist shoots with a shrug
stealing the same old emotion year after year
like an incorrigible thug.. mind minus spark plug
bandra poster boys amused by these shutterbugs
holding each other from drowning smug and snug

If Wishes Were Horses Than Beggars Would Ride

if media photographers had vision
to see what we see than on the
soul of a newspaper it would
add some pride ..photo journalism
in india is on a downslide ..big shiny
lenses  crass attitude conceit arrogance
is what they possess ..humility untried
the god of photography because of
these braggarts committed suicide
today a two year old child shoots
the street a split open wide ..
on the soul of innocence god was
reborn no sooner had he died .
pity the photo editor mouth gagged
hands tied waiting to bring in something
new ..brain dead half fried..

dedicated to a blogger million light years
ahead with inborn creativity on his side
he shoots truth reality justice equality
in spectral light ..
