....the kid....

THE KID IS HUNGRY...
HE S SEARCHIN ALL AROUND..
THE MOTHER IS NOWHERE 2 B SEEN..
U CANT IGNORE HIM..
HIS DARK FACE..
ILLUMINATED BY DOS DARK BLACK EYES..
WHERE U DNT HOPE 2 C ANYTHNG BUT EMPTYNESS..
HIS CLOTHES SEEM 2 B CLAD ON HIM 4 ATLEAST A YEAR OR TWO..
DEY ARE NOIN BUT MERE RAGS..
DUST COVERS EVERY PART OF THE BODY..
AN EMPTY CROOKED CONTAINER RESTS IN HIS HAND..
U WUDNT DREAM OF SERVIN AN ANIMAL FROM DAT CONTAINER ...
BUT DIS GUY IS GONNA EAT FROM IT..
U THNK U R SO LUCKY 4 ONCE..
A SMILE PLAYS ON UR LIPS..
U STUDY HIM MORE CLOSELY..
DEN U C SMTHNG DAT LEAVES UR MOIST..
IT S HIS SMILE..
HIS SMILE IS SO BEAUTIFUL..
ADMIST HIS SURRUNDINGS..
IT SEEMS LIKE DIAMONDS SPARKLING..
HE SMILES WHEN HE LOOKS @ YOU.
HE PLAYS WITH D STREET DOG..
HE JUMPS IN THE PUDDLE FORMED IN D RAIN..
HIS FACE LITS UP ..
WHEN HE FINDS SMTHNG THROWN AWAY ON THE STREET..
SOMETHING..V MINDLESSLY THROW..
D PURE JOY..
THE PURE BLISS..
LEAVES YOU WITH A STRANGE SATISFACTION..
FOR A MOMENT YOU FORGET WERE YOU ARE..
AND WAT WERE U THNKIN ABT ..
UR PACE SUDDENLY SLOWS DOWN..
N UR TENSIONS DONT SEEM SO BIG DAT DEY CANT WAIT..
INFACT PROBLEMS SEEM 2 DISAPPEAR..
N D BLESSINGS BECOM VISIBLE..
YOU WONDER.
LIFE ISNT DAT BAD .. ..


N DEN I REMEMBER MY DAD..
N HIS WORDS..
"WHEN YOU WANT NEW SHOES ..
THINK ABOUT DOS WHO DONT HAV FEET.."

TRYING 2 REACH THE STARS...
BUT IN THAT QUEST I HAVE LOST TOUCH OF THE GROUND...
