"I want tea."
"No tea for you."
"Don't be a bore."
"I hate it when you pour tea from the cup onto the #saucer and then slurp it."
"Give it to me in a glass then."
"Sacrilege."
"You won't?"
"No.
"No steak for you."
"Don't be mean."
"And no..."
"Don't you dare."

So much to worry about,
Illness, apocalypse, etc.
But,
Today,
#HappyDiwali to all,
I think about that day,
You left,
28 years back,
But,
There's more,
Love, etc.
We didn't have much time,
But,
It lasts,
Forever,
No worry,
Ok, an #atom bomb, maybe,
Can beat that.

I avoid the scatological.
From the poop stained great statues
To the filth that’s spread in god’s name.
I avoid love and poetry too.
From the aphrodisiac to the bitter end
From the sublime to the crass.
I avoid you.
From me
To you.

I was 14. Travelling alone to Singapore.
In Madras, went for the 'Poltergeist'.
Guy with 2 dolls sat in front. 3 heads faced me.
"I'm levitating," the lady with bhang thandai said.
"I love you," from the other side. To me. Her bf smiled.
Anything #unearthly? Nah.

Autocorrect sucks.
"Need a #deluxe bride?" she asks.
Didn't I type let's ride?

#haiku #senryu ?
I miss good ol' love.
Separate bath-bed-rooms with
Deviant #undertone.
#vss365
#haiku #senryu ?
A weird dream (again).
To prove my love to you (both),
Swim with #piranha.
#vss365
#haiku #senryu ?
"I'm getting married."
"You can't be a #libertine."
"Time we changed our ways."
#vss365
#haiku #senryu ?
Had a weird dream.
The Devil took over The God's work. Without a #clash of ego.
My love was given a new life.
The wicked got their comeuppance.
The innocent threw away the shroud of cynicism and smiled.
Not for long.
"I'll be back," The God had promised.

One can't escape the sins of the past.
About 25 years back, I went for weddings and looked down on the hoi polloi gobbling down the veg sadya. I did that only when they served 4 or more payasams. (Before that era, I avoided weddings like the plague. I was too young for that and deaths.)
About 10 years back or so, the 3-minute weddings here were extended to include out-of-state features like haldi, sangeet, whatever. Only those who looked good on social media were invited for those events. I was not.
Now, they don't invite me even for the wedding. The bride and groom like to have a grand party with close ones. That's the good news. The bad news is that the parents still hold a function or reception, expect me to give a gift cheque and they serve food which makes the hoi polloi wonder, "Are we really that low class?"
#SundayMusings (on a Monday)
Is Time #elastic?
Ne'er thought it would hit me
Again.
Restless and insomniac
And happy
Urging the sun to rise sooner
Tongue-tied and anxious
Wake up wake up I beg
To hear that laugh
Before you say
What a kid you are
I bury myself in you
How close we are
Forever.

"Searching for an #oasis
In the middle of a tropical forest.
Story of my life."
"A, will you please plz stop writing?"
"Swaps, that's my antidote to love. Never failed."
"Is there a woman
Who can tolerate you and
Your writing? Alas!"
"You are nearly there, woman."
#vss365
“Is the door closed?” she asked.
“Who cares?” I said.
It was a #blur after that. There were corny lines.
“I am not going to love you.”
“Me too...”
I am back in her life.
And I do not really know why.
I am not sure why she has accepted me.
