Maybe

He stood at the platform

And remembered his friend say

"It is easy if you get used to it,

Just stand at the entrance,

And you'll get pushed inside.

Stand at the exit and you'll get pushed out.

Mumbai trains

Are easy to use."

He lay there,

Fallen beside the track,

Giddy.

Got up.

Waited for the train to pass.

To get back on the platform.

He had stood there at the entrance,

Got pushed in

And pushed out of the other door.

And landed on gravel.

Next time someone tells you

That something is easy

Just smile "Maybe"
