Words On Paper

Crazy newspaper boggles my mind
teaches me something, things I find

Grilling, gripping, my hand it pulls
i dive in its knowledge pool
black words beautiful drive away,
away from sordid TV's cesspool

Politics, ads, criminals bad,
accidental news, sob stories sad,
he kills her, or someone's dad,
Angelina marries with a guy named brad.

Op-ed columns are filthy rich, knowledgeable
Editorial page with letters stitched
Top column ever so big
never fails to take a dig

Business economy all alike
seem to me cartoon like
cartoon clip-art politicking Keshav draws, laughter make me cry

Fifteen pages joy wrapped fun
i eat everyday with a bun
earth would seem to stop rotate
if it arrives a little late

Tea or coffee mug hooked in hand
"do not disturb", the signal stands
"The Hindu", my Koran,Gita, Bible
people please all understand

She and me are best friends
don't be jealous, you'll understand; once
when you'll inhale her,
listen and absorb what she yells.

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.’...

Ode to a Tea Cup ..

China spherical vessel on desk With a hook shaped beautiful nose Flowery rose buds round like spuds Mouth as big as hose They say that you are a china 'cup', But made in India it's written. Your angelic beauty has left me, Helter skelter and smitten. Where in India, whence you come, How, where you were made. My teacher says she read on net, You're mass produced and hand made. Children of poverty, juveniles, Spending 80 hours each week. What Can I do, how can I help them,are, answers that I seek. Cup on desk, screams and reminds, I'm a child of cruelty son. This piece of beauty was born,when, Child labor was done.
