Yeh rahaa hamaara pratham raashtrabhaasha lekhan.
Hum hain sheetal billa aur sheetal billi.
Rok sako toh rok lo.

What Nonsense.
it's not fair.
one bad rhyme-pattern, hurriedly composed poem cannot outdo all of my letters and all.
no, not fair.
and, you know what?
Somebody wuvs me sooooooo much.
(as much as Somebody hates it-)

So, okay
I am given to being
stupid and saying
silly fings, but meaning
not a thing.
I say them with no spite
i get nothing right
and you like me despite
when you should actually slap me tight.
I suck at poetry
I just can't rhyme
But now it sets me free
for twas my fault this time.
I just wrote in
to say somethin',
S it starts with
Y it ends with.
'Sexy' you might think,
but that's not it;
I am not one to hoodwink,
(Go call me a twit)
Okay,
think of this as a bouquet,
with a note popping out which
just says, 'Sorry ya, bitch'.

Of course i have not forgotten this place.
I visit it quite often myself.
But do not write, that is all.
That is attributed to poor, and what the hell, non-existent writing skills.
Also, i be in final year of emmbeebeeyess. Four syllable academic hurdles are always little pain in posterior. Remember essessellsee?
While i enjoy abusing that excuse, what remains the truth is the aforementioned secret.

so, i blow the dust that has gathered here.
and i'll sit, and wait.
in the meantime, i will watch the world,
from my tiny place on a vacant parkbench,
by a busy, busy road,
infested with busy people,
touching two ends of a busy world.
and i wait,
wait.
for a warm shoulder
to throw itself by my side,
and say,
whatever happened to our soliloquy?
and i'll sit, and wait.

Sonnet
Shall i compare thee to a Summer's day?
Though art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And Summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometimes declines,
By chance, or nature's changing course untrimm'd:
But thy eternal Summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st;
Nor shall Death brag thou wand'rest in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this and this gives life to thee.

In the open!
Hanging!

Psst..
You are the insipid in beginnings,
the hiding in my muse,
the twirling, thinking index finger,
the cliches I abuse.
You are the simple lyric,
that challenges my rhyme,
the soaring, surging raaga,
four beats at a time.
You are braille in a reign of black,
the reluctance in refuse,
the security of darkness,
the intent I confuse.
You are the personal disbelief
in your own silly excuse,
the little devil worshipped
deep, deep, in a ruse.
You are stage that stands waiting,
the audience I can't amuse,
the silence that listens patiently,
the love-poem gone obtuse.

where's the guffaw,
really?
no, there's a line.
fine one. but it's there.
can't quite tell you what crossing it is.
something instinctive, i guess.
and
no, de facto needn't become de jure.
figurehead-leaders are classic examples.

Dil chaahta hain jo kehne do
Mujhe tumse mohabbat ho gayee hain
Mujhe palkon ki chaaon mein rehne do

Lauuw koshunnings
i am thinkings this lauuwship koshun answer be this:
loving someone is probably accepting them becoming a habit. a good one.
part of routine,
and people start to identify you by your good habits.
but i'm guessing we're too proud for that.

Deductions
what i deduced from your laauly laang note:
one kind of yellowness has not happened.
(afaik, it's happening now.)
boredness has happened.
bleeding nose has been left behind somewhere.
and you are traversing up the wrong nostril,
dreaming of noserings.
you can hate, of course.
Am Sh, and her pretentious ilk,
haunting jazzthemed haunts,
particularly when she is/was pissed with you.
you can hate anything you like.
honestly. because you already hate many things.
it's a strong word that you've abused,
to fit convenience.
nice convenience,
it defines what you finally love.
don't hate. you have a lot to lose, then.
be at peace with most things. it's so much easier,
no?

Hideous
(Landscape review - CPU hum, rickety fan, squeaky springchair. Interjecting this machin-ated symphony are sharp expirations(if you please) every 8 seconds)
So.
Baby, some people make art out of nothing.
But, there are some things that fall way beyond known paradigms of art.
Even the best artists couldn't salvage such situations.
(Battlefield Earth had a reason to be the disaster that it was. As did Hindenberg)
You are Basil Hallward.
But i am no Dorian Gray.(the wider context of the sentence is provender for much debate, but thats for another post)

Muted
It's 4:30.
The deadest hour of the night.
The dogs stop howling.
The mosquitoes seem stunned, even.
Stunned enough to let one soak in the beauty that is 4thereabouts.
At 4:30, all i am faced with and faced by is the low hum of the computer.
Somehow, that seems muted too.
As the world sleeps its sleepiest sleep, a trickle of customised sunshine, or is it moonshine, falls on my eyes; making me close my eyes and bask in its warmth.
The most i manage to do is nod my head, and utter Wahs from the corner of my mouth.
And feel warm all over again.
Is it daybreak,
or,
is it Kishori making day break with Lalit?
I care not, for the tanpura fills my head.
Leaving me hoping for a better day.

Oh. Okay.
That was a motion (pun) to get more purgings.
Well,
giving you a hug is most useless.
So I'll just quietly listen.
(There's no policy that it has to be alternate yellows. It's doing so when you feel like it.
Then again, In the case of *you*, you just go on and not reply. And go beserk if I don't.
Means, you are beyond repair. And, that I'm not even going to try.)

Guilt
Okay, dearest Darkling Thrush,
I have been a little too unprofessional, in terms of sticking to an unspoken protocol of alternate Yell(ow)s.
But, considerate arent you? I ripped the insides of an already empty cranium to come up things Imagination would be proud of. If only, that extended to writing non-medical too. Thats in the realm of sighness and bitter truths. Lets not even go there.
Its 4. I rant. I ramble. Rat-tle. And maunder.
Ptosis blurs what i write. Excellent excuse for coming up with the kind of crap, sadly, only i am capable of.
So,
lets breathe,
do a system reboot.
Good we do back up
(read, i read all your messages on the phone since the past month).
How have you been?
Now, you asked me that first.
So,
i have not been that good, horrendous exams notwithstanding.
i have not been that good, because...
narcolepsy has set in.
paranoia has happened off.
rani pink in all her glory has been a bitch, (with 'ulcerating teats, psoriatic skin, upturned-pudgy nose, wobbly knees and an i-define-loser attitude'.)
(Glory reminds me of a Dynam teacher in school, stout, fat and dark, who would struggle in heels and, like coincidence would have it, wore pinkest-of-pink lipstick)
(Used to hate her)
(there, she plagues even now; distracting and giving rise to unwanted shudders down an already ill spine)
Suffice to say, i have not been good.
And you know why.
As if innate pissedoffness were not enough, i had to augment it with reading a few blogs. Something i had consciously avoided.
Like on self-destruct mode, i did.
I did.
And i regretted.
Specially when there were flighty statements made about executions and Sammy foreign policy.(Sammy's dreamland saaku, makha.)
And then i read mine own.
Crescendo happened.
Full on, with sweeping violin choir going hysterical. The cellist's hand is a blur.
So, my own form of silly catharsis i desired.
Hence i purge.
Here.
(If you say, the toilet was a better option, i will actually laugh real hard)
.
.
.
And now, i have to come up with why i called this piece(of whatever) Guilt.
Lets see.
Hmmm.
Ho-hum.
Hmmmmm.
Hmmmmmmmm-er.
HA!
I am guilty of being stupid.
(Oh no, then i have to carry a tape player that says 'i am sorry' 24/7)
So,
what else
I am guilty, of killing your time.
Of successfully muddling your worked up brains.
Of bringing disrepute to yellowness.
Ayyo,
not no more.
Ta ta, moo moo.
Yours,
Ihaveofficiallylostitanddontwannaregainitwhatsoeverthankyou.
