The ubiquitous uproar heard these days is looked by many to be the rise of fanatic communal sentiment among the class that calls themselves ‘Hindu’. They are perceived by many to be behaving with self-assured hubris, who if given a chance, would rule with their impudent hegemony. What is the ideology that drives these […]
Aim For The Posterity!
The edifice at which the prevalent system is working on, makes me wonder sometimes, what actually happened with me, what was I supposed to do and how did it all came to this. I see my past and I loath it, for I stand vulnerable today in the present, anticipating the insipid future that awaits […]
Manan!
रुआंसा हृदय, वेदना भरा वो हर-एक पल व्यापक था उन दिनों, मुझे भूला कर निकल पड़ा था तू घर से, स्वायत्त ! पीठ के बल चरमराते गिरे, सपने निष्फल। अकुलाहट की टीस तुझे भी छूई, मंद व असहाय, तेरी अश्रुपूर्ण छवि, मुझे दूर लेजाती गाड़ी के पिछले शीशे में उभरी, हॉस्टल के मैदान के बाहर […]
लकड़ी का मकान!
लम्बी सीधी खड़ी इमारतों के एक छोटे स्पाट घरोंदे में बंद, अक़सर याद किया करता हूँ वो लकड़ी का मकान। जिसमे गिरते-पड़ते स्कूल से भागकर पहुँचते थे, जहां कमरे की खुली खिड़की ताका करती थी मैदान को, आवाज़ आने की देर होती थी, के सारे काम काज भूल जाया करते थे। खड़े सूरज की गर्मी […]
Ride Into Oblivion!
Evanescent youth dwells in languid hope, where resides a caprice to flee; Where sonorous symphony once induced serenity, tranquil mind sung with idyllic brevity. Where vestige of carnage was phantasmal, and cascade of love plunged in depths abysmal. Whence at dusk ebullient dawn bloomed, ironic, it shimmered at arid wave of cold in the gloaming, […]
Lost Highway!
Both had our say! Caught in mysterious ways, Destinies entwined, At times, causing dismay. You led I crawled, Now I rise, you sway, With hope and fervour You incessantly obey. Promises I make Although sound opaque, But essence of our LOVE Amidst chaos, Is always awake. We met, whence we were devoid Of a vision, […]
For the Sake of Unpredictable Life!
Dear Brother, Astonishing and surprising it may sound, but yes this letter is directed to you and I wish it finds you in a prosperous state of physical and mental health. Although it may be the first time that I’m communicating to you through thoughts inked on paper rather than in person, but I never […]
Conscience Undressed!
O Libya: Whole world weeps with you!
O Libyan: Whole world weeps for you! Libya was burnt, its countrymen were decimated and their land was ravaged, while we were made to think that people who were long deprived of their freedom, were finally liberated from the bigotry of ‘Muammar Muhammad Abu Minyar al-Gaddafi’. I’ll admit that at least I believed that and […]
Exquisite Love: a revelation!
It had been exactly two months since he had stepped out from his one room apartment. Earlier he hadn’t thought that he will be able to continue living in isolation even for a week, but as the time passed he started enjoying it. Of course he had taken preliminary measures to ensure his basic needs […]
