Waris Malangs of Dewa Sharif

He Tries To Sell Everything Under The Sun At Dewa Sharif..

Have You Ever Thought About What The Beggar Would Do With The Few Coins You Give



he would
have to travel
all the way to
kashmir for
one rupee meal
or trek to delhi
jama masjid area
for a 5 rupeee meal
or take a train to
mumbai close
to mr raj babbars
house for a 12
rupee meal
or he would
have to beg borrow
steal ..his fucked
fate sealed .
for politicians
on full stomach
it is just being
funny zestful
their words
dont heal

they dont feel
what a beggar feels
who really cares for
beggars .. not mr
ahluwalia with his
economic zeal

an empty paper plate
costs more than rs 5
a thought reveals

going round and round
the cosmic wheel for
an imaginary meal

The Beggars Of Dewa Sharif

A picture I tried to tweak.. so that it could speak



his flesh
was dying
his spirit
was weak
on the road
to purgatory
a human freak
once he was
young robust
at his peak
than came
the fall
deprivation
doom..fate
gave him
a hard
slap on his
cheek..
his lot
arrogance
his lost
world
now lonely
alone
totally
meek

dekho zalimon
gira main asman
se zameen par
mangta hoon bheek
gandu ab bhi waqt
hai mujhse ek
sabak seek
sab yahin reh
jayega ..thuk
ka thuk
peek ka peek

They Come To Dewa Sharif To Be Healed



for 3 days
they get a
free room
free meals
a pact of
hospitality
humbly
sealed
ya waris
pak truly
revealed .

The Crying Beggar of Dewa Sharif



on the cobbled
street of remorse
like a fallen leaf
i dare not ask her
what was her grief
robbing her of
her soul i felt
like a thief..
no reprieve
her cosmic fate
holding on to her
belief.. finally
i gave her
some money
along with
my kerchief
