It’s late in the evening
I’m wondering which road to take
I look out my window
To hear the traffic and brake
I’m still in the office
Its better I holler a friend
Maybe we’d squeeze past this jam
Or maybe I’d be stuck here till ten
The thought has to come to my mind
To give the rikshawala another try
But it’s been more than once now
My hopes have all run dry!
The ease and comfort in which he denies
A ride to every person seeking a ride
His heartless reply and the look to deny …
You a lift from off the road side!!
Occasionally you’d find a helpful soul
To see the desperation in your eye
He’d offer you up a metered ride
Like an angel who heard your cry
This of course is a one in billion chance
For most often than not for sure
You have to tread back home
Or your own car’s the only CURE!!!

Once a dude asks a rickshaw wala to take him to London. The guy is suprised but the man assures him that he has a cargo plane booked which can take the rick from the Bangalore airport to Heathrow. The guy is ecstatic at the onsite oppurtunity but what autowala worth his salt wont haggle for half return. That settled they get onto the plane from Bangalore and get to London in some time. He drops the fare to his home and goes around doing some sightseeing in the city. Suddenly he sees an Indian waving for him to stop. Stop he does and asks him where he wants to go. "Koramangala"
"Now what makes you think I will go there"
