Water War of David & Goliath

 

i can smell the blood 

that will spill soon,

death is better than a slave's life

In a land so sick,

i might be sick of defeat

or I have lost my gods,

i won't let another's blood

raise a stink on my sword,

it's time to #swim to the sun

trying to be the moon...

Dear #vss365 pals,

The situation is more or less the same. Yesterday (on the 9th day), they supplied about 1000L of water. Today, no water supply.

It is a caste-war in which this one-man army of David will lose to the forward community Goliath of the Vanchiyoor ward. 

1/2

That's the only type of war worth fighting, right?

I have decided to post general rants (about movies and such) without the hashtags that might put my post in your feed. That's just to release some mental pressure.

Hope to interact with you all soon. Dead or alive. 🤣

fascist in disguise

 

My #uncle was a fascist in disguise,

He spoke like you and me,

Hid his caste with an alias, 

And a machete in his undies,

When he groveled in front of god,

And chose who he gave what I should get,

I knew his head should be on a pike.

strange world

 

It's a strange world-

Where I read a newspaper

To find the truth in what's missing;

Where I hide and smoke

Before being smoked in #stuffy traffic;

Where I shift to renewables

To consume more energy create more waste; 

Where I love

A hypocrite with similar values.

Pick the right pic

 

I looked at the photo of the kidnapped kid.

Ewww! It's not cute, cherubic, cuddle-worthy,

The wrong #costume for this fancy dress act.

I have a coffee table book for such affairs.

If you have a war or divorce or debt issue,

Pick the right pic that sticks to the sick.

What do they see

 

"I miss her, the way she cuddled like a #baby. Sleeps best with me, she used to say."

"It was my eyes, he said, he could see my trust and that's all he wanted to see."

"What do they see in each other?"

"Definitely not trust."

"They aren't sleeping either, I am sure."

when we are not mean

 

The last three of my gang have been disposed, forsaken. 

From #dwarf to giant, old pact on a freight train from desert to home buried.

Strangers will do, we can joke, it hurts only when we are not mean.

Can we avoid that when we know nothing of no one, not even the lies?

effingo ergo sum

 

Out on #parole. Working for Copy Corp (motto: effingo ergo sum). Cash is in role-reversal.

In 'Prick & Jaundiced', Lizzie walks out of her lake (in which clothes?) with Darcy drooling.

In 'Passed the Wind', Scarlett says, "I don't give a damn." Will she abuse Rhett?

2 types of lovers

 

There are 2 types of lovers.

There’s my type, wasting words on being trapped in a #prison called love.

She’s the other type. She spoke about her past only when I asked her to marry me.

"Killed my first lover. With a hammer. On V-day."

That's the day for such, I say.

addiction

 

Long ago, I was granted a boon.

"I don't need no addiction," I said.

I am no #alcoholic, no abuser of no substance.

But, there's a catch with boons. And, prayer.

They like to tease, they do.

I ain't complaining about you. Found and lost. 

It's the guilt that kills.

paranormal

 

Went for a wedding. 

The couple did not exchange vows. Fangs pierced each other's throat.  

We too had to have that love bite.

I was seated in between an Alsation and a gorilla.

Now, hanging in limbo between Heaven and Hell, it's a life with the #paranormal forwent.

twisted game

 

When I look at you, it's through me.

Your better parts hidden,

Not your bad luck,

Job, spouse, kids, dark circles, broad waist, 

It's not a #twisted game,

I will pick one, just one,

When you seem hurt,

We will chuckle, 

When you refuse to smile,

We will unfriend you.

truth

 

Circa 13 PA, the first alien on Earth noted that the #dogma that led to the decline and fall of the human race was:

'Whenever one feels like blurting out the truth, one should stay away from social media.'

(PA: Post-Apocalypse)

guilt

 

If I ask you 

What you are guilty of

Will you ask me the same

And laugh when I tell you

I don't feel the rage and passion 

About your hurt and #freedom 

As I do about mine

Will you ask me to name

That one who should not be named

Because it's me who has hurt you most?
