=====
While roaming in the market,
I saw a beggar on the street,
Who was asking for a grant,
With smartphone at his feet,
=====
His voice was croaky,
His clothes were all torn,
Still didn't worry, had,
Paytm on his phone.
=====
He begged from anyone,
On street , he could find,
And offered his barcode,
With hope in his mind.
=====
He called up the kids,
Their moms dads and sis,
And pleaded them all,
For a little of their bliss.
=====
Please Send me some,
grant he would implore,
I am Just a poor beggar,
With no bread in store.
=====
All laughed at him ,
That Digi beg though,
Still all have granted,
Him bliss of rainbow.
=====
And so on that beggar,
With phone at his feet,
Collected the grant and,
Pleased with the treat.
=====
He thanked all kids,
Their moms dads too,
And then proceeded to,
Beg some where new.
=====
And I was surprised,
What a world of today,
Even Beggars updated,
Have found new way,
=====
Their selfies are sad,
With frowns so deep,
With ad-on to make them,
Look oh-so-sweet.
=====
Their Instagram posts,
Are a sight to see,
With sad filters and ,
Captions they plea.
=====
Please help me out,
as I am in need,
And hope that you all,
be kind, indeed.
=====
This online drama,
It's ways so strange,
With norms all old,
Forever have changed.
=====
So next time if digi beg,
Says he is in need,
Be aware of him & you,
Need not to cede.
=====
Don't get fooled by his,
Digital such asks,
For beggars are beggars ,
Just pseudo are masque.
