I open my eyes and see ..
Street children fighting with stray dogs over a piece of bread
And a bunch of "gentlemen" looking at them with eyes full of hatred.
Streams of people emerging from the alleys of the city
Racing a race, without a goal, from the creation till eternity.
Aimlessly they rush through the streets beside the walls
Ignoring the fact that the planet belongs not just to a few, but all.
I close my eyes and see ..
A hundred vultures sitting on my body, lifeless
Screaming in a shrilling note, feasting on my rotten bones and flesh.
Scoreched in the mid day sun I lie
Far from all hassles, all hue and cry.
A meter away lies a piece of my heart, in grey and red
Abandoned by the hungry birds, failing to tear the piece of ugly lead.
