Teenage ..

Pages blowing leaves upturned
hunger unfed me, my stomach churned
Pepsin,trypsin all kinds if sins
waiting to get released in the din
Silent my room whirring fan whoozes
refrigerator behaves like scrooge
Hunger pangs hit and slapping me
in front the book is tapping me
Open me up read some text
it is the thing for your future best
Lanky operator taking refuge
under the rules,'sir we don't deliver'? bloody stoog
Dominos I called, Hut of Pizza refuse
opened fb my ultimate recluse
Logged on the Subway delicious site
i jump on screen to try catch a bite
the screen broke, now scared I am
my mom will smack me .... bam!bam!
It was a new lappy i bought
window 8 my sister had taught
to open it and how to run
she warned don't watch 'stuff', but have fun
Still hungry me my eyes dart south
idea springs and i open my mouth
Popcorn buttery there sitting raw
waiting for me to cook snack and thaw
Now lousy my butt who will go
and stand and wait....chalo..'rehne do'
i say to myself as i sit back and rest
legs stretched and calmly resting my back.

If Teleportation Was Real

“The Portal Room” A Short Story by a Student In Germany Who Just Wanted to Hug His Maa Without Spending 400 Euros, and 12 Hours Chapter One: The Portal Room It had been raining all day in Gießen. Not the kind of rain that brings kids to the balcony or makes your mother yell from the kitchen, “andar aa jao, bimaar ho jaoge!” (“Come inside, you’ll fall sick!”). This rain was foreign. Cold. Grey. Silent. The kind that made homesickness louder, made your heart feel like a waterlogged suitcase. Arpit sat at his desk, staring at the open laptop. The cursor blinked at him, like a ticking clock, but the words wouldn’t come. His eyes wandered to the window. He imagined what his parents might be doing in Delhi. Maybe Maa was making chai. Maybe Papa was watching the news. Maybe the house didn’t even feel complete without him anymore. His phone pinged. A message from his sister in Düsseldorf. Didi: “You okay? Missed your call. Also, Maa said, ‘Bas ek baar uski shakal dekh loon toh theek ho jaaye.’...

Demons and Dungeons : A Framework to Learn In Teams

I have been called many things in my life. Team player is not one of them. It is not as if I have worked in many teams, or many teams have chosen me to work with them. I am the kid who was left out from the group formation as a kid in middle-school standard. Imagine the isolation. Recently, Aparna Piramal Raje, who is also my professor, quoted : Dare to stand alone,  Dare to make yourself grow, Dare to find your purpose, Dare to make it known.  Imagine, I have been doing it since I was a kid. The presence of a group can seem less fortunate sometimes than presence of lone Sysiphious warrior. Although now, it is difficult in a hyper-globalized world. I am learning the art of group management and negotiation, treading Moore's law every second. Since years, when I started volunteering. In the past few months I have been found fortunate opportunity with Anant Fellowship. I am a part of team with four more people. We have frequent conversations on Google meet. We have weekly interac...

I am yours !

In you heart; don't deny you don't wanna hold me I'm your part; apart if I'll be you're gonna miss me If I go away;come hold me close Jump in the bay; cross the sea and come! I'll keep you with me today and always I am sweet you'll miss me anyway So just jump and hold me close before I go Pull me by hand carry me or tow I see you; baby-blue eyes staring pleading craving all there They just give your intentions anyway So when I'll go; will you watch train depart Will eyebrows;show sadness of your heart We can be together always Step forward and grab me anyway Just regret don't you feel when I'll go We can still be together you know. ( Note: Inspired by a Song of Shania Twain. An original work)
