the dead body

with a first class pass I travelled luggage
Francis knows what i am saying
he knows all Bombay's funny facts
he laughs when darwaza opens
and sniggers when Mithun tells Manek

I am sick of beating you
and
audiences are bored


or how an MBA graduate sells wada paus in Mumbai

the luggage is emptied with lathis
it's not as bad as Bulsar shuttle
getting creamed in dadar
my poor mom, I have protected her like a child


the lathis send the commoners reeling out at station
and the dead body from a train accident
is piled travelling alone with two khakhi cops
armed with lathis incase of a terrorist attack
he dead body for the first time in an empty train compartment

going in style

It's raining
we wait


for the next train
