yes he calmly replied

he barked and she meowed taking a calm stride

it is like a video game

dodging that dolt or that pretty dame

provides ultimate exhilaration

steering through in office hours at a mumbai railway station

Walking down the Road

walking down the road

off beaten paths my new abode

watching new things

back some old memories they bring

participating in the act of life

filled with harmony and discord alike

The Bomb

bob come here

shouted rico pulling the chair

something new he had discovered
rubbing his hands from the euphoria he recovered

after years of toiling like a miner

we have made the bomb hissed robert oppenheimer

Mud on Wheel

thinking thinking not a thought

wasted was the mud that he bought

mud was put on the wheel

rotating wet smooth feel

soon things started taking shape

with love the potter began to drape

phyan phyan go away

indian team wants to play

seven match series it was

4-2 in favor of Australia it is a lost cause

they want to salvage some pride

go away fast and take a northwards stride

Wooden Sliver

flowing water in the river

carrying with it wooden sliver

knows no path of its own

moving in vortices all alone

carefree and happy it just goes

unassuming trust sans woes

Cric Cric Cric Cricket

creepy noise all night long

unlike any other freaky song

one wakes up from sleep rickety

room is filled with sound crickety

oh you hidden cricket where are you

in the glorious night chirping through

One Big Party

people all thin and fat

that cute girl and that brat

swinging to psychedelic tunes

drugged and from fears immune

jiving away all night

doing stuff not worthy of sight

having tonnes of money and living hearty

as if entire life was one big party

A block?

a mental block

makes us self talk

a road block

take government to stock

all sorts of block

make us crib ad hoc

though hardly anyone thinks

blocks vanish with clear thoughts topped with a few winks

Deadly Sin

air slightly chilled

his blanket curled and frilled

eyes heavy and imploring

to close and go in dreams exploring

in his own list of deadly sins

evening sleep clearly wins

The Pink Lion

there once was a lovely time

when on earth did tonnes of colors shine

animals in all colors and also non green trees

butterflies transparent and yellow colored peas

but the best was the king of jungle like never seen

you would know if i tell you what i mean

after the suburbs somewhere in sion

resided the big and lovely pink lion

Taking Stock

those carvings on the wall

hollow sounds like wind having a ball

amidst unfaltering greens and browns

infested with visuals of yesteryear towns

red stone and obliterated rock

where time stands still to take stock

Big and Small

smaller microchip and more in it

smaller messages in 140 character limit

small is the world and smaller it gets

short interactions and sleek widgets

then why is that the heart pines

greater love peace and a few more loving lines

Hero to Zero

wicked grin on his face

dressed in whites with grace

he moved as the crowds clapped

he was the savior thought people enwrapped

there he stood like the lead guitarist of a band

after the ball with blood in his mouth and a tooth in hand

To Mexico

little boy little boy running hard

playing soccer with kids in the backyard

across the road is an electrified fence

all covered with creepers dense

a heavy kick and ball flies across to mexico

poor kid across played along to be like sanchez hugo

The New Invention

they had just found a new way to kill

but they were worried about excessive spill

soldiers were distraught

so simple it was yet they hadn't thought

of all the people in the town

it came from the maid of the clown

chopping lamb pieces over the beam

she had invented the guillotine

Sunrays

there they come

from God's own kingdom

riding through the cosmos

gleaming through dew on morning moss

brightening everything on their way

are the bright morning sun rays

Off to Disneyland

mom i want to go to disneyland

he said while scuttling through the sand

she agreed after some persuasion

as they moved to the airport without hesitation

off they went past the security check

in no time she dropped the kid on the deck

she kissed him and bade good bye

as the kid fly found a crevice for the journey to lie

Life Song

singing along

the life song

as it goes from reds to blues

displaying its subtle hues

lows and pains and wretchedness

highs and funs and placidness

all go singing along

the beautiful life song

Helter - Skelter

helter skelter goes the work

along with it all other plans lurk

taking a heavy toll on mind

thinking about all the threads that bind

bent by enormity of huge task sheer

forget everything let us chill with a beer
