Pedestrian Thoughts.

             Pedestrian Thoughts.

The tardy trucks wryly wriggled their way
Like pythons looking for their unlucky prey.
The trucks knew where to leave the load away,
As the pythons their spot, for their eggs to lay.

When the zebra crossing is often set to rest.
The pedestrians' patience is pushed to test.
In countries known to honour the human feet,
People cross the streets without the police beat.

But our urban pavements are a haven of bribes
For fixing dwellers,peddlers and homeless tribes.
Most streets here, have no walking zones as such,
And road traffic hits walkers,with a wicked touch.
.
Pedestrians on roads seem to walk on nails and knives,
Battling with traffic terror ruining their limbs and lives.
