9

.

In 9 years....
9 days.
9 days, again.

What I know is that I can trust his eyes because what lives in them, lives in me.

26.

I've reached the other side.

26 years have taught me that....sometimes skulls are thick....sometimes hearts are vacant....sometimes words don't work....but sometimes we smile and that makes it alright.

One phone call is all it took to bring Alice out of her dreamworld.

New Day


'Twas about all that jazz & more
Dilemmas & dire straits
Trippin' the light fantastic toe
In cacophony of the invisible
Jived all night
All nights.

As the trumpet flower blooms
Night changes to noon
Troupe recedes
Ocean fades
Snow dries up
Tonight, I dance alone.

Get on with it. NOW.

To hell with hating love
loving smiles
To hell with confusions
cherishing nights
To hell with the sprained neck
hurting knees
To hell with vacations
wanting relief
To hell with life
living it up

Get back to work.

As I chew over....

Driving to work today, I came across a scene today. I dare to call it a 'scene' because I slowed down for 10 seconds and drove on. Now I sit at my desk and wonder what else should/could I've done.

Traffic had slowed down at the stretch near Lado Sarai Petrol pump; all I could figure out during the 10 seconds when I pressed the brakes in my car and slowed down was this.....A group of people were standing around a body. Two were trying to revive him through CPR. Others were standing and looking. I remember thinking "Should I stop?" What would I do if I do stop? Someone, hopefully, must've called an ambulance. Someone, hopefully, would take him to the hospital. As I strained through the rear view and hoped to find a moving body, praying for God to help him, my colleague who'd seen it too broke the silence and said "I made burger yesterday.".

Burn in hell, please.

As you leave, without a soul by your side,  I hope you finally saw the dark side of your deeds. The curses that turned to flame will continu...
