Mandate......

Yesterday was the day before the People's Day.
They will have the power to rise against the atrocities,corruptions and crimes.
And against the lunatic,impostor mandarins.
They will have the power to choose the man for the people,by the people and to the people.
Will the incumbent be toppled?Will it be a change of colour?Will it be a shift of paradigm?
The people will decide.

But yesterday was not like the other days.
The streets were relatively less crowded & calm too.
The Gunmen had taken over.
Their stoic faces and automatic killer weapons raised doubts among the passers by.
The lovers who walk the same street day to day were not feeling easy.
They were talking in sotto voice.Something was causing a tremor inside them.
It was raining and the cacophony of the thunder tranformed the ambiance gloomy.
Was it a sense of premonition or was it symbolizing the strength of people and the change?
The time will tell whether the people have been strangled or they have won.

great one ........ the fear has taken over the land ....... voice of the people is getting muffled ..with none the loudest ...... fear prevails ... fear of uncertainty ... fear of the unknown ... our society is so multicultural ... our politics are an embodiment of that at the national level ... just hope .... India Prevails ! the demography of our society is changing ... and none for the better ...... let regional biases be squashed aside and a nationalistic tide sweep over our country ....... let India be One.... let us be united against crime ,poverty .. and all other ailments of this land... we need to unite ... stand together ...... or divided we shall fall !

great one mate ...... ;-) :-)

What an apt masterpiece...

and timely too...

politically correct as you are... I too hail the biggest democratic exercise on this planet...


And let regionalism ( minus the bitter sentiments ) define the course of multi-faceted nationalism..

let the voices of people be heard..

as they cry in unison...

and DJ...

Sometimes the woman is the only man!!!

three cheers!!

A sheer joy when I opened the trapdoor in silence,in concealed footsteps. What I saw was a Sunset in a new dimension. A broader sky.A canvas painted by some anonymous. Marvellous. I could not peep through the concrete wall though. I was little. Words insinuated 'cause they forbade me. A 'juvenile delinquent' in their eyes. They scared me of Monsters.But they didn't appear before me. I believe they lied or the Monsters did let me go. I can climb up to the highest part of the roof now. I can feel the whisperings of the wind. Conjuration of the clouds.Nodding tree branches. They say this is a waste of time. But I feel myself cogent. If I was given to fly,I promise,I would get home at dusk with the quarrelling flock of Gulls. And walk on the roads as directed.

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?

Just a Litt'i'le Pinch...OOUCH!!

She was born with silver spoon in hand  on a  thunderous midnight and she never cried. She is now a hippie and God she wears a Gucci. She carries a Chanel on one hand and a Poodle on the other. Christian Dior feels fortunate to be  on her shimmering feet. She does her lip-gloss and  Victoria's Secret immaculate. She has her OOMPH alright! She drives a brand new Cadillac,the one her dad gave on her sixteenth. World stops staring when she scorches the road. She looks smart when she puffs cocaine  and walks into the bar with a fistful of dollars. The limelight is on her and God Brad Pitt wants her! The Sunflower feels to be ashamed  when she sparkles on her extravagant apparels. Scamps want to lick her like a pie; but she plays her game right. Watch her move. Once she looked at me on a crossing  and I felt dizzy straightaway! I started chasing her wildly because I thought I should have her. But I was born with Plastic spoon in hand,my sleazy  but trustworthy rubber shoes ripped off qu...
