Yule Time of Hate


Yule Time of Hate
Originally uploaded by firoze shakir photographerno1

in a few days here in mumbai
or in the western world
the birth of jesus christ
they will celebrate
those that talk
pretentiously
of love peace
yule time
but inherently
the colored man hate
this is part of their mental make up
their bad karmic state
laying traps
they lie in wait
yes with a poisonous
poetic dart
their victims bait
they pretend also to
be champions
of anti racism
call themselves minority
than crash the gate
the colored mans
cybernetic existence
to terminate
searchlight but
than its far too late
in a white mans world
white mans travesty of justice
the sins of a generation
will not expatiate

The Traffic of Life and the Beggar Girl


The Traffic of Life and the Beggar Girl

she was first a liitle baby
hanging on a beggar childs waist
she became a toddler much in haste
now as she steadily grows
her vulnerability
in an egg shell encased
like her mother her elder sister
15 years already
with child
she has the bitter
sweet kernel
of life to taste
an aborted childhood
like a moving vehicle
on lifes running traffic
at some other signal
misplaced .

The Muslim Poor Man

outside the mosque
oblivious to the maddening
world moving by he sits
writing his lifes
ailing story
in bits
now that time permits
two days before bakra idd
the slaughtering
of the sacrificial goats
lacs spent on kurbani
the sacred sacrifice
while he lives
in the pits
time and tide
lashing him
a few more
black eyed hits
yes he is a poor muslim man
a small frugal head
yet the skull cap fits
the salah his obligation
to omniscient Allah
come sickness bad health
he never omits

Hijdas Children of a Lesser God poem


Hijdas Children of a Lesser God poem
Originally uploaded by firoze shakir photographerno1

A new lot of Hijdas have taken over the Turner Road Traffic Signal, I met
them yesterday while going to work, Laxmi the Beggar Hijda who kept
this signal running with her kind face has stopped coming here , and I guess
its their head or Guru who controls and tells them where they beg..
The Turner Road Signal is a prestigious begging point, and the arterial road leads to four distinct points of Bandra..
However the Turner Road beggar kids give the Hijdas a tough time moving in for the kill as the kids really are faster on their feet, semi naked and the little tots completely naked.
Their mothers play cards across the road, food is leftovers from the nearby Stomach restaurant. The Eunuchs eat from the street stalls mostly the Bombay staple food called
the Batata Wada ..which is potato pancake in bread and green chutney…

a new fresh crop a new lot of Hijdas
beg at the Turner Road Traffic Signal now
morning to evening they move from one car to another
a field of no returns
tired as they plough
of the sweat of their brow
to the passengers in the cars
they smile as they kowtow
the beggar kids plunge headlong
the eunuch competition
wont allow
a hopeless fruit of misery
that almost bends the bough
here on the streets of despair
the children of a lesser God
broken puppets on a string
have less human respect
than the Holy Cow

Last week a chariot bedecked with flowers and a huge stone from Ram Setu was on display, the procession was drawn from people of Bandra Bazar Road..
there was a large crowd taking darshan and prasadam..

'Save Ram Sethu' is an international campaign jointly promoted by a growing number of international organizations to oppose the destruction of Ram Sethu, also known as Adam's Bridge. The Sethu Samudram Shipping Canal Project undertaken by the Indian Government will destroy this bridge.

Latest Ram Sethu News

International groups have jointly launched the Save Ram Sethu campaign against the continuing destruction of a symbol of the Hindu faith in the narrow sea between India and Sri Lanka. Ram Sethu ( called Adam's Bridge by the British ) which is seen as one of Hinduism's holiest sites, is an ancient chain of shoals that once linked India's southern areas to Sri Lanka's northwest. It is being destroyed by the Sethu Samudram Shipping Canal Project (SCCP) to create a navigable waterway in the narrow sea dividing the two countries. [more]

This one I am using as my poetry subject

no woman I would want to sleep with
discordant times recession makes sense
I d rather sleep with a life size horny
telescopic zoom lens
a libido far flung and immense
no nagging no bragging no wifes regular nonsense
no more viagra no more spanish fly
if it does not get up no need to get tense
no more old days no more new days
to reminisence
no more taunts no more
she getting pregnant
no more gestational suspense
an indian dress a mere lioncloth
gandhi wore it churchill took offence
no for a million bucks
I wont wear a kilt
I may be stupid I am not dense
Love poetry hate Racism
I am shocked at my poetic moderation
are words to my racist antagonists
as my only ahinsa based self defense
it takes two hands to clap
two hands to repair a broken fence
what shocks me a mere insignificant
Indian gutter fly
caused a fluttter not worth two cents
bashed up egos albaster white faces
bashed up hollow poetic pretense
wounds that will take time to heal
add it to the exchequer as incidental
cybernetic medical expense
my soul banned at poem hunter
smoked out with the fragrance
of a pest killing incense

To Mr Danny Reynolds-Bandmaster


*uck you danny reynolds my fight is not with you keep your scottish ass in the kilt it looks better in there ///
you would not want someone to play it like a tabla would you.

intimidate you dont scare me at all
if you have time come scratch my left ball
living in a glass house
dont throw stones at a brick wall
what you thing is big
you dickhead might turn
out to be small
so over expose it
to your white women
this New Years Ball
with a new kilt
made from your
maid servants shawl
bowel cheek and some jowl

Mr Danny Reynolds is a poem hunter member who has been harassing me at Poem Hunter whose remarks to me have been no less than racial slurs..
