This corner

How many times have I crossed this corner
How many times have I lost my way
How many times that single lamppost has been my guide
How many times have I kicked that pebble in my way
How many times have I ignored my ignorance
How many times have I moved in viscous circle
of acknowledgments and ignorance
How many times have I blamed my past
While being blind to the steps I am taking
How many times have I crossed this corner

nothing is lost


nothing is lost
Few lines up already
And few down
Few loaded inside
And few lost within
So many bruises and so many cuts
But not even one little scar to show
Dusty little alleys – ask for more
Those footsteps which are formed
And lost within a small whisper of the wind
Unanswered questions or rather unasked
With heaps hidden and much lost in smoke
Fire that’s invisible to eye but felt miles across
Harm which is done
Though nothing is lost

A dead conscience- slaves of our own fears

8 people killed in a line by a blue line bus, People which were waiting to board this bus.
I have come across endless number of stories about the Blue line murder spree since last few months. Had decided to stop listening to news or read newspapers as I couldn’t think of anything better to avoid these news. But there’s no escape, just plain no escape it will hunt us down. But the question arises my mind is if its hunting few of us here, I am sure there must be more, why isn’t there anything igniting our politicians conscience – If they have one? Or we just have shut our eyes permanently – covered them by plain darkness. Accepting Ignorance is bliss and it suits us and as our world will continue. We are among the largest population and losing few here and there are actually a help in disguise.
We should award these drivers to help in the increase of death rate?! Its more likely to be a paid killing –kinda mafia thing; we are sacred of Blue Line as much as were of Mafia.

There’s more to it, as we aren’t doing much to take these drivers off the roads- these accident prone drivers (cold blooded murders) are killing and then taking off the possessions of the deceased. Well yes, true as well to think of what help can be a watch or wallet be to the deceased, rather just off load the heaviness. Kill, Steal and Run- none of the three P’s would be of any obstruction. The Three Grand P’s – Politicians, Police and Public. We are just too busy in our own sweet world, let us stay here forever.
We will fill our pockets, we will torture the underprivileged and the simple, we will turn our backs to it but yes we won’t forget to crib.

Well my friend, maybe this cribbing might raise few questions and later that questions might help in evolution of a revolt – I just hope it doesn’t take us another 400 years being slaves- Slaves of our corruption; Slaves of our own fears.
