somehow they came together
at the LSE
i mean where else
would they possibly meet
in this big big world
the two
a friendship somehow I knew
ran deeper than deep
and so I tried to keep
out of the picture
I tried to look and learn
from the two////
a novelist guy
a gangster who didn't shy
away from hard work
away from his rough life
they crossed paths
and remained at the junction
as they tried to figure out
just how to function
differently
G learned from the streets
writer from his books
it was there
at the junction that they shook
hands and shared
it was there
at the junction they took
new ways, new ideas
new things to say
we might hear this story
again some day
some place
-----else
