Death: An Arrival

A gust of wind from a sun starved sky

The deep melancholic cry of a wounded canine

The heavy fog settles nowhere to escape

Amidst the silence somewhere a knell rings

The keeper of secrets they say has arrived

The man of the end, the man of time

With every step he stamps his spear

The accolades, the treasures, the titles thirst for want of another moment.

I've absolutely no idea what moved me to write about death but there it is,,,,not exactly a poem but something that can come near

Inked

“Get a Butterfly done” “an Angel will be perfect” “Tribal
Stuff”,,,,"a Cute Devil" were just some of the opinions I got when I announced my decision to get inked,,,,,(Tattooed,,,I mean) All accepted but my tattoo was gonna be my skin and it was to represent me,,,,,so there I went on a searching spree driving my frnds, parents not to mention the poor tattoo artist mad and irritated for my perfect design.
But as they say every tattoo had to have a story. My story was linked to the girl who got tattoed with me. My bestie Rashmi.......it was our deal as a memoir for all the crazy stuff we did together for all the juciest stories we had to tell. It is my  constant reminder that no matter what I do there is a partner in crime ;)
In the midst I came to a conclusion tht a Pegasus would do justice to me because it epitomised speed, power, beauty and an hr and few bucks later I’m proudly inked,,,,,,God I still remember the feel of needles pricking the ink droplets but its definitely worth all the lip biting and nail breaking I went through and for some reason I feel more happy with myself for doing this 3rd degree torture.

Zoozoos and Elephants

The TV and me share a love hate relationship,,,I hate myself for loving the TV coz its absolutely contrary to my cool nerd image. But at times it so happens that u just cant avoid something. For me it was the IPL 2 that made me stick to it (for the sheer fun of seeing all the hotties in action) but cricket and all those goodluking hunks notwithstanding I was falling heads over heels in love with someone else,,,not even remotely human,,,,U guessed it right honey it was the ZOOZOOS and my didn’t they bowl me out completely so cute, so adorable, so madly funny(yup,,,,I came out with all dese clichés inspite of me)they zoomed right through the screens capturing the imagination of young and old and the chirkuts too. Once again reinforcing the fact that none of us forget our childlike enthu for cuddly stuff. The Zoozoos ensured that Vodafone had their sales skyrocketing wid ppl going crazy downloading zoozoo stuff(I got a decent no of the videos saved on my fone too J)but it also showcased the sheer brilliance of the ad makers,,,kudos to Nirvana and O & M. I hope u guys recruit me after I’m done wid my MBA.
Likewise u guys noticed the Elephants on roll in the Happy Dent wave ad,,,,simply awesome( Matka hai Roshani ka matka hai ,,,,ek nadi ka tukda isme atka hai) ohh my associating human enamel with those giant tusks required some nerve above all the other stuff. As the common grounds for admaking is to get consumers buy the concerned product some ads go beyond them all and start a cult widout over d top jazziness thts exactly the kind of ads that get products sold,,,,,,,,CHEERS,,,,, till the next amazing ad(Daant taley Diya Jaley)
P.S: wanna know my fav ZOOZOO ka ad,,,it’s the msg all frnds one.
