When I was hungry,
my hunger gnawed up my bones
When I was at peace,
the world fixed its snout on my puddle.
When I was ready to fly,
my feet were leaden.

Max Babi, my guru, like Tukaram has a weakness - he barely records his prolific output of poetry. Tukaram is immortal because of Santaji Jagnade who collected his works; this is my attempt to get as much of Max's stuff (he sends it on SMS) in one place.
