15. A HOMICIDAL BEGGAR

 

A casual glimpse at the beggars face,

can reveal altogether a new case.

its filled with substantial beauties and charm,

the joy hidden in occasionally occurring sleepy trance.

the bone jarring thoughts of his simplistic mind,

involve no trickery plots like the educated kind.

his hands so shabby look black and soggy,

they cant get the ingredients of an ivory flask.

homicidal tendencies crept in his mind,

he held gleaming knives in his hand,

ripped through bulging pockets of passing bystanders,

laughed like a harmless devil sipping icy mouthfuls

of left over food.

his eyes have an uncanny touch of blue,

they don’t envisage great ideas of creation,

instead give realistic clues of hunger at its very best.
