Handshake And Cigarette Poem by Nassy Fesharaki
Handshake And Cigarette
Handshake and cigarette
On pavement of Dundas
a young man
way too young and fresh
possibly a Muslim,
obeyed his old culture:
"Help and care, "
Mesopotamian cradle.
Lad stood
visible a bundle
among which hid homeless.
Young turned right,
holding a yellow bag
extended to bundled,
(shaky and weary in amazement.)
Then a word, cigarette and handshake
That was all he could do "give and care."
