Untitled Bliss- Twisted world


In this World i see,
only grief and misery,
pollution and obscene poverty.
Everyday i see,
people kill to make more money.
bribes have become like 'chai-pani'
Abortions take place just
oh so easily.
Revolts and wars,
lead to destruction daily.
No salvation really.
Why are we here??
with no proper destiny in sight?
Lost in this world full of hate and fight
why are we so blind??
to all this suffering?
maybe , if we unite,
one day we'll find an end to this,
hopefully....

Ode to a Cell



Most of my So-called poems are stuff written on the go. Words strike me at weird times and haunt me until i put them down. Since you cant expect me to start jotting down stuff while im struggling to get a foothold on the crowded bus, eating out with friends or doodling in class. thats usually where My cell -a mobile for those who prefer to call it, i dont want people to think im talking about some Zinc-cadmium Battery or something ( i know,Bad pun), that comes into Picture :) [except for the last one, cells not allowed in class. Duh!]
Its been a year since i got my first cell phone. this here is a tribute to having survived so far :) Its gone through a lot of abuse at my hands. Drowned in water even. i have been told that it wont last too long. but well i blame myself entirely for that.
The cell has a draft box filled with half complete poems, a 1.3 MP cam which helps me take snaps-another hobby, and of course helps me locate friends in that huge college campus.
"eh, where to for lunch??? DP???" and
" Where the Hell are you??" being oft conversation starters.

Its been good times...
