She Was Waiting For Me When I Passed Her By

i gave her
some money
i shot her
picture
i held in
my palm
her little
childs cry
to beg
or not
to beg
or simply
die oh god
why oh god
why ..her
hidden face
her swollen eyes
was her marriage
to a son of a bitch
this sacrifice ..

I Stole The Color From His Soul


i robbed
him of
the splendor
of his existence
dabbed his
destiny in
charcoal
a part of
his sorrow
i made it
whole

I Am Jesus He Said Friend Of The Living And The Dead

Jesus And Mary


exiled
from home
his birth
his source
he set off
on a journey
hope as oars
jesus made his
home on our
shores people
here he loved
they opened
their hearts
faith reinforced
they loved him
he became
the Life Resurrection
essence and core
he stayed back
never thought
of returning home
he became
a server
servant of
the poor
the needy
the homeless
a healing
force ..wiping
a tear
removing
obstacles
pain fear
remorse

The Bandra Skywalk

public money
wasted gone
down the drain
a flyover from
mahim to santacruz
would have been
better than this
mindless strain ..
but than as indians
even if we are
screwed we dont
complain ,,,silent
complacent we
remain ,,,thereby
our nirvana of peace
we attain.. even
in politics we have
limited options
either we vote
for the devil
or jump in
the deep sea
the same
corruption
the same
governance
with a brand
new face
new leash
we get
chained
no profit
no loss
no gain
fixed price
no bargain

Gandhiji Ab Nahi Ayenge



unhi ke nam
se unke bacche
lanka main ag
lagayenge
ladai age le
jayenge
yakeenan
garibon
ko unka
haq dilayenge

kya aam admi desh
ko bacha payenge
yeh man ki
kok se anewale
bache bata payenge
