Profile of the Missing One

Wheatish in appearance,
He is peasant-like in his ways.
On his brow he bears a scar.
Not less than five feet in height,
Appearing care-free,
He stammers as he talks.
Ask him his age and he’d tell you,
He’s more than few thousands years old.
Seems like a mad man—but he is not.
Many times he has fallen off high places
And now he is in all pieces.
He might look all put together,
But he is like the map of Hindustan.
