Hustling

Inspired by What do you see #202

this will be the day
he hopes
yet still unsure

his sale of cheap books and jewelry
the attraction
his reason for living

will the people of chandni chowk be interested
it’s a gamble
they have let him down before

he doesn’t want to get too excited
his burdensome load may remain
only to go home on his shoulders again
