Alas, Beggars
are neglected
by ignorant
and educated!
We cuss
at them
and rue
-Goddamn!
They beg
of you !
But its
nothing new!
Because
we all beg
when in
last legs!
Dear Ashis You are telling a universal truth. Every one will have a time to beg; may be for food, cloth, shelter (Roti, Kappada, Makan) , love etc… What would I say more, we are begging on a daily basis for Sun, Air (Oxygen) , water etc to the almighty… no one is self sufficient in this world. Nice poem. Nooruddeen
That is so true. Nicely penned. Everybody begs when faced with poverty or maybe when looking at the barrel of a gun, knowing that you might be loosing the only thing that meters- you life!
