Hey you mortal! Living a dual life
Changing colors like a disco light
All bright and jazzy but doesn’t illuminate the shady night
I know that you are not what you look like
And I don’t care to know your true side
Wasting time and effort on you doesn’t seem to be right
So I let you think that it’s safely [...]
Far away in my own life,
Somehow I’ve been in touch with You
A part of me says déjà vu
I don’t completely trust my treacherous heart, yet I assume that I know You
Lost in the sea of disjointed wonderings
I escape myself and wander towards You
Such is my life…I can’t resist the flow
You are a lone sailor, intrigued [...]
Self portrait captured while cruising through Mori Plains, Ladakh
Bikes, mountains, and a drifter like me
Streams, clouds, and a molten soul
The chill of Leh was cozy and homey
Now I’ve fallen out of the dream,
Yet I managed to smuggle visions into the rocky reality
Challenge, speed, beauty and the precious silence
How I crave for yesterday’s gifts in [...]
Eeyyuuu Oh ho O O O!
System hangs; once again the virtual memory is low
Recycle bin farts while temporary files overflow
Mind is blocked, bandwidth is clogged
Connection timed out, where the hell is F5 lost!
Tech support says purge the idle din but I can’t say no!

Cavity in my heart and dandruff in my tummy
Oh! This pencil is so very yummy
Mangoes are ripe and the cat is chummy
Playing in the mud, wriggle-jiggle, splash-thrash, gooey-gooey gummy
Fanning with the manual she calls him scummy
Speed up and overtake that out of focus bummy
Stamping the dance floor while leopards play rummy
Shut up and behold my [...]
Minaret of the Taj Mahal, Agra, India
In the blur of perplexing course of life, if you seek you’ll find a window of faith
The window is all yours, if only you make it your focus
In the sea of dried passions and harsh realizations, if you believe you’ll feel a ray of hope
The choice is yours, [...]
A hindi poem published in Tehelka Hindi. Following is the same poem in English script:
Never Mind!
Raat ko nind aati nahin aur subah khulti nahin
Aaj bhi late, boss kalsega!
Full speed pe car bhagaun magar
Road pe traffic ki bharmaar hai
Aaju-baaju waala har driver bekaar hai
Just chill!
Never Mind kar de!
Office main kaam kam aur meeting zyaada karte hain
Deadline [...]
