The House inferno.....

Run.Fire.Alarm.
Save yourself.
Look for the inmates.
Save the paintings and
the bunch of roses from the hungry flame.
The memories captured in frames been charred.
Tears has gone dry 'cause of the heat.
The thick Holy book no longer exists.
Ashes causing coughs.
Hold your breath.Run.

The bird,was locked in the cage has died.
The baby is burnt.The black smoke is rolling up and
clasping The House like a serpent.
The garden is engulfed into the fire.
The wooden cradle have lost its veneer.Still in swing.
No sign of pulse.Only the violent breeze and flame.
Sensing the damnation.

The House is burning.
Crumbling down slowly.So the Earth.
We never made it,have we?
Is it on fire because of Us?

Slipped when it was dry...

And walking out from the bedlam session,created long long time ago,grabbing my hedonic thrills...was like playing the packman again and again... Sneaking through a squalid alley...don't really know... My intentions were fragile and maneuvering was nil... All your credos seemed fake.. My naivety made things worse. Thought of starting out right from zero.. Guess it is not the truth... Love the way it is... Ever changing...bleak... Eventually shows the way!

riddles...??

Why does the Nature unleash Her fury and unveil the miseries? Who is the Omnipotent?Who makes us to cringe and we feel so defenseless at times? What the heck Science do?And the Satellites? What is there in literature while people remain illiterate mostly? Why some kids tiff over the candyfloss while some others ordeal is to fill their tummies? What is there in the late-night jives while the street children cannot sleep? And their cries remain unheard,neglected? Why the glittering sky-scrapers shine holding their heads high while the thousands of shelter are inundated? What is essential in the big-screen TV and MTV tantrums while the house-hold maid is being raped? Do the people elate when their leaders recriminate? Why romance is ephemeral?And the twilight? Why the guns are so immaculate? And the brave hearts fight till kingdom comes? Why my cigarette burns down so quickly? And the thoughts...they die? " There’s a big a big hard sun beating on the big people in the big hard world...

Scent of A Woman....

I remember the day,I was carried away by an aroma to a skinny alley of this tainted town. The scent was diffused all over,I guess. And it was a distinct smell amongst the filth. Then what I saw! I saw an extremely beautiful flower blossoming from a rupture of an austere brick wall. No Origin of S pecies could define it. The colours were vibrant,fragrance was maddening. I felt the presence of a Woman. "Oh!Wicked boy get away from her, please maidens don't pick her up!", I cried deliberately. She was dancing with the wind,waving her body like an angel. I sensed her,touched her,watched her devouringly. But Alas!Time passed by quickly and  suddenly she started wilting. I realized the day had turned into dusk; lights were diminishing. She could not live without Sun. She would die in the cold of Night. Transgressors would strip her,molest her,murder her. She had no tomorrow! I wept childishly and hoped that  the Sun would rise again. But your God did not hear my prayer, all th...
