Forgetting to forget


Falling down the shaft of regret.
Activating memories, stories sublet.

One reason to another, one season to the other.
One cobweb has faded, another one to embed.

Charcoal are my eyes, my lips parched dry.
Fury and ferocity, the feelings I bed.

Questions like crumbs follow my trail.
Forget for a moment, but a new regret.

Blizzards of artifacts, clouded facts, some convincing, some hard to get.
Clinical perfection, exposed reels, beauty in extremes, ripped seams.

Powder is my snow, always clouded, rain and sleet, my vision shrouded.

Walk two steps, you become unknown, every night - every tone, a sonnet I have read.
Moving on – a mountain approached, Rubik cubes ---twisted prose.

Spider logic, frozen words, sheets of questions, remember or forget.

Marketing ka Halwa

Har admi marketing ka halwa bana ke dusre ke halak mein dale ja raha hae … Bura haal hae… Marketing is certainly not what it wanted to be, today if you measure marketing on its own brand prism, it would indeed lie defeated on all counts. Every 1 person enterprise has a marketing budget these days, translated as money spent on consumer nuisance and harassment. As if it’s not boring enough to be serenaded by Irfan’s dull as ditch water middle aged act every few minutes on TV, courtesy Vodafone, we have to bear inane ads linking things like soap with Vishwas and Bharosa. What the hell has bharosa got to do with a standard consumer durable like soap?? Is the emotional pull even required?? I am quite happy if my soap smells good .. and thank god for that. Does a consumer really buy more if an Aggarbatti promises to invoke god? Or if a Galaxy tab can help sketch some man with a tap running on his head? Does it all really account to more sales or just more NOISE? Leave apart the insaneness of

an equal balance

im the new sms, im the unplucked rose, im the rush of adrenalin, im that drop of prose, im the bride of desire, im the unbridled fire, im the liberal oxygen, im the favourite season, im that love you never saw, far away when i raised the sos, the smoke which disappeared, leaving its burnt hut splinterless, im not the ship you ride in high tide, but im an equal balance if you believe in the divide.

TERMS AT IMT - to all my classmates with love

First term was an executive summary of painful GD sessions, non stop introductions, more so to the mosquitoes and insects of the badminton court .Getting up for eight thirty classes and for most of us, the first introduction to CAM, with a gifted teacher, whose gift to most of us, I can safely say was a B minus. The only thing I learnt was how to decode the language of the Sir, to English, but alas, I got the same gift as the rest of the multitude. Second term, was a flurry of mathematical based subjects, of which, I genuinely know very little. Specially OR, where I seriously learnt how to cheat, with the help of the nicest partners on my opposite desks. Could not draw any transportation diagram, and all the transportation I wanted to do, was of mine outside the hall. Third term, Passions, was on our mind and in our hearts, couldn’t think of anything else .And when we were finished with it, we got up like Rip van vinkles and suddenly realized the next
