Its been a while..

Hey, how are you,
how you doing ?
need a shoulder,
people are booing ?
don’t worry
they’ll go silent
you just don’t get violent
its been a while since you’re bearing load,
go take rest, oh god.

keep calm,
it might take some time
its life
always out of rhyme
why try so hard
be a bard
its been a while since you changed gears
go shed some tears.

so whats happening
you don’t know
things are out of way,
don’t cry, listen hey!
you’ve just missed the focus
you’ll find the exact locus
its been a while you pushed to keep going
just try a bit slowing.

what to watch
what to do
its heavy to carry
just don’t worry
its been a while since you’re carrying the wagon,
go slay the dragon.




nothing seems to be working
you fail
you lose
don’t know how much to try
you did best, you tried
its been a while since you cried
go cry.

tried everything
lost to life
you are right
its a hard fight
and everyone cheated, everyone lied
its been a while since a part of you died
sacrifice it, let it die.

Naked

A few months back, I came across a  YouTube short  of  Slavoj Žižek . I don’t watch reels or shorts as it’s a rabbit hole. Once you’re in, getting out is hard. That reel was a part of his interview and had a story.  Žižek  is a Slovenian philosopher. A girl came to  Žižek  and told him that when his last lover saw her naked, he told her to lose a few extra pounds. Her lover thinks she will be perfect once she loses 3 -4 extra pounds.  Žižek  told her not to lose that extra pound. He said that imperfection is the cause of desire. This imperfection held him close to her. He might lose interest in her once she loses those extra pounds. It is called the objective cause of desire in psychoanalysis. That brought two things to my mind. First, we are humans and naturally wired to find negatives anywhere. It is just simple threat protection mechanism. So if the girl secrets the extra pound, his partner’s eyes would the...

Bad Company : With a touch of Indian history

Those who do not read the history tend to repeat it.  Ever heard the above quote ?    In school we had a story of a bad company and a friend of mine, Sanjay said jokingly 'all company is bad company'. Don't go into grammatical errors of it since we were Hindi medium students and more importantly kids. I think both of us now working for some corporate would agree to this with some extent but I am sure that Sanjay had not said this keeping corporate in mind because we were in middle school and we did not know where would we go.  Possible comparison he must have done is East India Company to Bad company of friends, bad friends can do enough damage to you in similar ways that East India Company did to India. Though, this reasoning can now be linked to corporate as well. Choice is personal and reasoning as well, but the thought can not be discarded altogether at once. I do have my reasons but let's get into history and see if we have something in common between East Indi...

Void

“Love fills up the void in your life, that’s what people say. But no, it creates a void,” he thought while sitting on chairs, waiting for boarding for his flight to begin. These days flights often get delayed, all credit to the weather in Delhi, but it will be well in Mumbai. “Maybe you had the void already in your life, but it was not in focus. Now, love brings it forward, and you can’t focus anywhere else. I knew I was right,” he thought, with a Duchenne smile on his face. But then the air hostess announced that they had started the boarding. He was in business class, thus got to go in first, with bigger legroom and ample space to write during the flight. Also, you get some other perks by being a senior citizen. He walked slowly, one step at a time, with a slight inclination left and right with each step. Staff helped him with his baggage, and he boarded. “Hah… weather is good here,” he thought after landing in Mumbai. A person holding a placard with his name, Ved, approached him....
