Estranged


                                


Madam what happened ?
She said I am NORMAL
But he said, you can still tell me
I am your old friend
She said :Shut up and don’t offend


Friend was worried
Why she is so serious ?
Just few days back she was fine
And now her mood is mysterious


Friend did a Google search in brain
Tried to figure out what 's driving her insane
Break-up, periods, hair-fall who is to blame
He confirmed with her again
But the outcome was same

Finally when her eyes were a little wet
On forehead a thin layer of sweat
She uttered something
Which seemed like a threat

To his utter surprise
He was the actual culprit and vice
This stopped his processor for a while
He became serious but he smiled


He stressed his grey cells
To recall what he did
Search result was Zero
He was left perplexed instead


He asked her again
Why was he blamed?
She kept her amplitude high
He could understand the reason why

Based on his track record
He did similar things in the past
He forgot what he said
Coz he knew the joke will not last

But this time a benign joke
A funny stroke
Has hurt someone hard
She said this is the end of friendship
An end of bonhomie’s boulevard


Hence a couple of words
Have changed the meanings
Friendship chord snipped
And No hard feelings


He found this reason strange
A funny joke and they estranged.

PS:As usual there was a truce after few days and a school time friendship was restored again.

It is all for the best






From merely a probability
It became reality

What were the odds
For this odd event to happen
Where were the gods
Who could have changed course of action

Smiles disappeared
Uncertainty cleared
Standing alone among many
At the crossroads I feared

Holding my wrist
Destiny fixed my tryst
But Gods will not be blamed
In prayers they wont be ashamed

My benign wishes
Are not meant for Recycle bin
Back to square one
Soon a new journey will begin

Lets start again
Lets start afresh
Lets forget the outcomes
Coz they say, 'It is all for the best

PS:Theme and content based on movie 'Forrest Gump'.

Worth your while



Miles away from home
I travel , explore and roam

Like a kid
Excited and avid
Discovering the discovered
Uncovering the uncovered

Capturing moments in stills
As a memory which instills

A symphony in mind
An opera which reminds
An era of smile
A period 'worth your while'.

The Mask


I borrowed in pieces
Few grams of Peace
To scratch out and erase
Thick layers of urban grease

This smear on my face
I showcase with a fake grace
Is a slave of hedonism
Oblivious of my purpose
I adore materialism

Running madly in a rat race
To compete with incompetents
For reasons I dont know
For people who dont care

But still I am running
In all possible directions
To catch everything
To chase anything

Caught in a virtual matrix
Sleeping with eyes wide open
At times in those day dreams
I venture out of this realm

To realize the difference
Of messy tangible existence
I pledge to renounce
this school of belief
And promise myself
To turn over a new leaf

But again back in day dream
I forget to redeem
To wipe off that smear
and fake ensemble i wear

I run again in a race
To justify pride in abase
To undertake mundane task
Still on face a smeared mask.

A Second Hand Heaven



Incomplete meaningless
Abstract chain of endless
Events and incidents
leaving new indents
On the mesh of neurons
Already in mess
Feeling free and light
No worries no stress

Wobbling out of axis
Uncontrolled
Unrestrained
Involuntary impulses
Twitched and waned
Sharp and blurred
Colorless and colored
Images and impressions
Lost and recurred

A second hand heaven
A fake utopia
Blue beach and golden sand
In scorching heat of Ethiopia

Imagination rides on Mac Lauren
and reaction time under-rated
High on cloud nine
When actually you are inebriated.

www.My_Stupid_Quotes.com

Everyday I read quotes in the newspaper by leaders ( famous and infamous), spiritual gurus,novelists,actors,business tycoons, environmentalists , musicians,sportsmen and the list goes on...I am none of them which means there is a little probability that someday i will see my 'Layman-quotes' in even any 'local evening daily '( Until and unless i start my own Press ) .
So I clubbed some of them in this post.

+ Rework gives a sense of deja vu.

+ Caught in a virtual matrix of life , where is morpheus ?

+ Its good to be an optimist,but very important to be practical!

+ At very atomic level ,be a proton and think positive.

+ What goes up must come down, unless u r moving @ escape velocity.

+ If u wanna be rich.Just Shut up and keep quiet.Because silence is Golden.

+ Common wealth games: Game ministers play to divert Common Wealth of taxpayers.

+ Experiencing extra downward pull, partially due to gravity and partially due to work.

+ In 3g technology we communicate at an acceleration of 29.4 m/s^2.

+ I would like to remove fourth dimension to make life simpler.

+ Some variables are constant.

Let Loose this Louse


Nothing to write
Nothing to say
Sometimes I am blank
Thoughtless and astray

Searching for a theme
Which can redeem
Draught of subject
and let me project

An image in words
Relevant or absurd
Real or Surreal
Explicit or unclear

After a week
When curiosity grew weak
I doubted that geek
Who used to pick
Kaleidoscope of topic
Has no new trick
Then a tiny insect
Jolted my tiny intellect
A domestic louse's prick
Makes my head tick
Events of last week
Now seems like a flick
It's stills and script
Became my new topic

Hence a pet louse
Helped me select and choose
New subject for this blog
By clearing confusion's clog

Don't Write Me Off Just Yet


'Don't write me off just yet' is a sweet song from movie 'Music and Lyrics'. First time i heard about this song from one of my friend.This video is a conglomeration of stills from this movie.

Guess What It Is?



Sometimes delight
Sometimes in plight
Fails to explain
Many tried but in vain
Millions of plots
In one nanosecond slot
Which way it tilts
Complex mechanism in built
Sometimes go forward
and sometimes rewind
Guess what it is
Yes it is our mind

Hey There Delilah...

'Hey There Delilah' is a sweet and romantic love song by band 'Plain White Ts ' with soul touching lyrics.Introduced to me by my friend Gondy en route to Nainitaal we all played this song till his mobile's Chinese batteries bid last good-bye.I have tried to redescribe the essence of this song by selecting some random stills .Not seeing the original video just helped me representing the theme with unbiased mindset.

Late Night Blues




Its 23:00 hrs IST
Alone in cubicle
Busy at work
Toiling like a jerk
Earning credit points
For year end Perks

Oblivious of time
Unaware of place
I realised an alterego
Intruding my personal space

I miss dinner with family
and missing familiarity
They know me as someone
Who used to be their son

My accoustic guitar
Now an untouched wooden bar
Layers of dust
Piling up on its polished crust

Smile is on a Sabbath
And fun on casual leave
Finger tip lines have faded
By punching acrylic keys

Hanging out with friends
is now an obscure trend
Workstation is my new date
For four consecutive weekends

For few extra cash
I allured in a mesh
Let all priceless moments
Become past in my present

I need a break
My identity is at stake
This is not me
A workaholic Zombie

Family,friends and fun
I need back all of them
Blogs,trekking and guitar
Will be again on 'Must-do' altar
Movies,nightouts and beer
Are making a comeback my dear

Protagonist of this Renaissance
Brainwashed all junk views
A shift in priorities
To ward off 'late night blues'.

*
Its a compilation inspired by anecdotes featuring my friends ( and me) when we started our careers.Finally we all manipulated our new habitats to live on again as happy species in newly introduced corporate culture.

Deliberate Attempts



A comman man
Unsure of life span
When steps outside
Makes a deliberate attempt of suicide

A ride in local train
Triggers a psychic pain
Every heart beat
pulsating with fear of threat

Praying to god
A journey safe and sound
Counting the odds
& a hope to get down

Finally back on road
Still insecure life chord
Suddenly from nowhere
A monster truck appears
On a bright sunny day
light disappears

Where i am
He cried and yelled
A coarse voice's hmmm
Struck his ear drum
Welcome aboard
You are in hell

But i was on footpath
At left side of the road
Now there is blood-bath
& a snipped life chord

My leukemic blood
Soaked up in ground
Soul now in hell
Baptised by devil's hound

A lifeless anatomy
decimated dream
Pulverising his soul
His mother's scream

So this comman man
No more uncertain of life span
To make his ends meet,when stepped outside
Made a deliberate attempt of suicide

Eureka!!!



I want something new
Untold unseen hue
Of words and worlds
Near and Far
Pure and fresh
Like a new born star

So Ideas knocked at cranium
As precious as uranimum
Deep down in grey cells
Ringing millions of jingle bells

Feeling not felt before
So much in mind yet to explore
Many unknown knowns
All distinct but still are clones

Lips shaping in little curve
Conscious shining with tons of verve
Hiding in this brains reserve
Many Eurekas safe and preserve

Mirage of Age

A generation gap
Captured in a snap
Reflection on glass
A stark contrast

Time s disparity
Uncommon similarity
A sequel of youth
A prequel of age
Future and past
At a common stage
An optical illusion
Its a mirage of age


( I clicked this pic in metro train.One can see two blurred reflections on the glass pane.An old man reading newspaper and a young fella in his prime.)

Quantum of Smile


A quantum of smile
Pounds of rag pile
Homeless abode
Barefoot on road

No Chalk no slate
No candy chocolate
No fail or pass
No school no class

Their entertainment
Forging brick and cement
14 inch sceen at tea stall
Their 3 D Adlabs movie hall

Life here
Without glare
Questions in stare
Is this all fair
Dark hopeless sky
Why God why
Where is all the fun
in dirt , filth and scum

Those who think
Writers with ink
Leaders who preach
listen echos of screech
Just stop and ask
Just pick one task
Lets change their life
Lets end this strife
Let this quantum of smile
Stay on for a long while

Soul Companion



When you sense
Numb to your presence
Craving for recognition
Your very own existence
Deaf to your sound
Nobody is around

Inside your soul
Out of control
A free fall in black hole
Outside its you
Standing in a queue
Facing the rage
With every ounce of courage

There is a war
Near and far
Material and virtual
Endless and perpetual

But dont loose hope
As time will change
Hold on this rope
Till variables rearrange
Master this art
Be a braveheart
At high altitude
Abyss, hell or heaven
Even in solitude
You are your sole companion
