Bard

He must be above 70 and thinks only in Urdu. Not a huge fan of listening, he speaks few words every now and then but his lyrical touch compensates for his utter lack of attention. Fortunately, he doesn't let his wafer-thin body and failing eyesight get in the way of his curiosity. He has lost it—materially speaking. And thank khuda for that! He's the kind of personality Tyler Durden would be so freaking proud of. I wasn't even aware of his existence until a week ago and now, when i keep wondering how many more such amazing characters must be out there sleeping on the sides of the midnight streets after squandering their daylight on poetry.
