“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.

I write
To #sublimate
Something
Into some other thing
I could call nothing
To feign
Some emotion
Without experience
To lose
Track
Of what I write
And
Wait
For my love,
My reader,
To misunderstand
And give my life meaning.

A far-fetched #eventuality I know,
To have a chance to say

To let trouble brew
And when I self-destruct,
Don't turn to look

Of love mistook.

Love's been gone for too long,
I wouldn't know how I should be-
Scowl in sun-kissed love-nests
Or #laugh in dark godforsaken alleys?
Will these cold eyes find a smile,
Will I swallow the cynical wit,
Do I know how to touch and kiss?
Quite sure it ain't like swimming or cycling.
But then, that too is strange to me,
If it comes in deep water or on two wheels,
There's going to be a valid excuse
To escape from the kiss of life.

In an imagined past,
To confess this

Marriages are made in heaven. We, at Premsucks, create that heaven.
'Ideal partners at an impressionable age': that's not vacuous #promotion.

The visitors' exit was sullen and hasty.
“What did I do?”
“You didn’t give them what they want.”
“I am new here. They are supposed to give.”
“Is that how it works in the city?”
“Sure. Give and take."
“Do you get any visitors?”
“No, but the principle holds in any #place."

Her companions always made her parents very uncomfortable. The last one was an insurance agent.
He tried to sell to them an insurance #product which
‘assured kids a happy future, and promised a hefty bonus if the parents met with an untimely demise in the 3rd year’.

I was not old
When #segmentation
Hit me hard,
In class 3,
In a convent
With boys till 4,
Sr Brenda
Punished me
For whoknowswhat,
"Sit with the girls,"
she said,
"Away from those 6 boys."
Hurts even today,
When I'm with a lady,
I feel the jealousy of 6.

I bought a time-machine.
Killed Hitler.
Visited Atlantis and Pompeii.
Stopped my parents from marrying.
I came back to the present.
I am still there.

"Sorry. No refund."
