misty saturday
misty Saturday--
my Sunday-best dripping
in the moonlight
school holiday
school holiday--
a group of bare-footed kids
headed to the pitch
August holiday
August holiday--
peeping at their trapped ball
through a gate seam
giving up the search
giving up the search
he goes home with one slipper--
August dust
school holiday
school holiday--
with heavy bags and smiling kids
they travel upcountry
Ramadan morning
Ramadan morning--
her shadow darkens with
the rising sun
street soccer
street soccer--
a whistling spectator
interrupts the game
census in the city
census in the city--
'the goats I have' question
makes me smile
census day
census day--
enumarators mill about
in August dusk
power rationing
power rationing--
charred spots beside
the candle stick
