I sleep in the corners …

Sometimes, I feel I am a burden to her.
Every street is my home since I was born.
I sleep in the corners and on the hard cement bed.

You were a plain stranger to me, when I first saw you
A young lad of twenty, I supposed.
Merely any attraction or interests you left behind
This all I barely could say about my first encounter with
you.

He just turned up one fine morning
And stayed put in the guest house
Full of visitors like him.

Coloured taxis laden with luggage

The hawk has
A bird’s eye view
Of the grey waters below.
The hawk swoops down
On the shoals of fish
And catches one.
