Politically Incorrect


Since everyone seems to be posting about Anna Hazare, here is my politically incorrect, frivolous take on it-

Q) What song's on the PM's mind these days?
A) Anna na hazare na re na re
     Anna na hazare na re na
     Sade naal rahoge te aish karoge
     zindagi de saare maze "cash" karoge
     sade naal.. hoye hoye

Q) And what was the response from the other side?
A) Anna haan hazaare haan re haan re
     Anna haan hazare haan re haan
     twade naal rahenge to trash karenge
     zindagi rahi to back-lash karenge
     twade naal.. roye roye

Other Wordliness


Words are like my imaginary friends
My playmates in solitary absence
Potent, virile, energetic, they beguile
entice, devise, impromptu improvise
Dastardly imps in innocuous bodice
Cowardly shrink in vacuous spaces
when someone wants to have a word

Ostrichised

I like it even when my earphones stay in my ears and don't play music.I get this feeling that I am cut off from the rest of the world,safely ensconced in my cocoon, invisible, just as I am when I wear shades.
Objects that make me ostrich.

(a passing thought.. probably will glean these up someday and string the beads)

Ghost Love

There you are
love lost
love unrequited
that never quite was
Turning into poetry
only because
I have to have you
and somehow salvage
the dying cause
