Blue Moon

Blue moon, you saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own

Scream!!!!!!!!!!!

a long winding road
crossed by few
thoughts in mind ??

sea splashing its wings
on a rocky beach
to break free, to die ??

sunrise on ice, eternity
the sheets show him his face
for him to face, reality ??

the god, creates me
for my absurd existence
to award, to avenge ??

arise, awake ohhh glory
and reveal once again
that you obliterate !!!

challenge my thoughts,
my freedom, my reality
or annihilate my existence !!!

to decease, to burnout
i opt over
the wait to be passed over !!!

Women's Reservation Bill

Women's reservation bill: As if we need any....

1. The head of the ruling party is a Lady (Naturalized Indian)
2. The head of opposition party
3. The Lok Sabha Speaker
4. The Persident
5. 59 Women in the 15th Lok Sabha

Well at this rate, men would need a reservation bill. Jokes aside here is my take on this stupid reservation bill. And I am more than confident that any sensible woman will agree to what I have to say:

Primarily, its a top down approach of the government for women empowerment. Govt largely asumes that when more women will be in lok sabha, more women freindly laws will be formulated. Now I doubt that:

1. The bill ensures a certain constituencies reserved for women. Which may mean that existing MP's will just let thier wifes/sisters/daughters/daughter-in-laws contest in elections. Hence more than 30% our lok sabha will be just dummy candidates. Which adds to the horror of decision making. Since every decision has to suit the person who's actually calling the political shots. Isnt it more harmful than the existing situation.

2. Atleast government should be an equal opportunity employer. This bill garuntees that even the highest office in the country will not be on merit. And politicians are arguing whether there should still be reservation for lower castes within this reservation.

3. The most important by accepting this reservation bill women accept that they have a minority / inferior status and that's why they need this reservation to compete.


I strongly argue that we should rather apply bottom to top approach. With the emancipation of women at the lowest strata of social pyramid. I will support panchayat reservations, would also support 50% delegation to girls only schools, colleges, medical schools (i know its going to raise some eyebrows, but in our rigid patriarchal society we need women doctors more than men)etc etc.

kabhi kisi ko muquamal jahan nahi milta
kahin jameen to kahin aasman nahi milta

Tere Jahaan mien aisa nahi ke pyaar na ho
Jahan umeed ho uski wahan nahi milta

Ardh Satya

Chakravyuh mein ghusne se pehle,
kaun tha mein aur kaisa tha,
yeh mujhe yaad hi na rahega.
Chakravyuh mein ghusne ke baad,
mere aur chakravyuh ke beech,
sirf ek jaanleva nikat’ta thi,
iska mujhe pata hi na chalega.
Chakravyuh se nikalne ke baad,
main mukt ho jaoon bhale hi,
phir bhi chakravyuh ki rachna mein
farq hi na padega.
Marun ya maarun,
maara jaoon ya jaan se maardun.
iska faisla kabhi na ho paayega.
Soya hua aadmi jab
neend se uthkar chalna shuru karta hai,
tab sapnon ka sansar use,
dobara dikh hi na paayega.
Us roshni mein jo nirnay ki roshni hai
sab kuchh s’maan hoga kya?
Ek palde mein napunsakta,
ek palde mein paurush,
aur theek taraazu ke kaante par
ardh satya.
