noone


every night 
just beyond twilight,
i change shape
and soul
with my other 
and inspite of a promising day,
go to dream
holding noone's hand
noone's heart.

From Roshni to me. (7 days before she died)

 
Talking In Bed

Talking in bed ought to be easiest,
Lying together there goes back so far,
An emblem of two people being honest.
Yet more and more time passes silently.
Outside, the wind's incomplete unrest
Builds and disperses clouds in the sky,
And dark towns heap up on the horizon.
None of this cares for us. Nothing shows why
At this unique distance from isolation
It becomes still more difficult to find
Words at once true and kind,
Or not untrue and not unkind.

Happy 26, A'int it?

This is the beginning, isn’t it?

I can no longer live in La-La Land, can I?

Turned a woman at last.

Some would say I turned that a long time ago but refused to step out and smell the candle wax.

Elle se trouve sur mon paupières,
comme une seule fois dormir fait.
Et maintenant, elle est à l'intérieur de moi,
comme une seule fois je pourrais être.
Si vous êtes arrivé, vous ne savez pas la différence.
Elle ne parle pas à des inconnus.
Tout ce que vous ne voyez que je suis assis seul.
Bien que je clutched son dans mon palmiers,
Et dans mon fermer les yeux,
Et je ma bouche,
Et dans toutes les parties de moi,
Où elle vit maintenant.

TV is fun again for me!

TV is fun again for me!

First, there is Kahaani Mahabharata ki.

I have read the Mahabharata only once and people were always sleeping with lots of other people and then dying or cursing others and causing there penises to fall off (I am only half joking). I have also seen the Doordarshan one. In fact my early memories were of watching MB on Sunday mornings sitting on my Grandmother’s bed (which was also my bed)

I have looked forward to Ekta Kapoors’s version of it since I saw Chetan Hansrajs’ Bhim on a poster everybody on my way to work and everyday I try to memorize how his body looks naked.

Coming back to it, after 2 weeks we are proceeding beautifully. It is the same story but beautifully divided into 30 minutes episode. It’s grand and well characterized and filled with beautiful people who worked on their bodies for a year or so and I wish people who don’t like Ekta cos she is Ekta watch this and learn Mahabharata, like my sis is.

Gossipmongers's madness.

She waits by the water cooler

as halls fill with oyster pink secrets

and laundry piles up behind her

And she revels in the dirt,

turning her beige life grey.

Lost my glasses in the morn, couldnot search for them without them (Irony).

Wearing lenses in the day after a long time, bright light hurting the eye and a clear perspective wounding the psyche.

Maggi, enough water and a cube of Britannia cheese creates a tupperware bowl of heaven.

You touch the warmest marshmellow core of me and you and I eat it with glee
