Day TwentyThree: Parallel
Day TwentyTwo: Parallel
Day TwentyOne: Sentinels of the Border
Day Twenty: Fog
Day Nineteen: People
Day Eighteen: Metro
The streets of Chandni Chowk, Delhi.
Day Seventeen: Tarmac
On a highway to hell?! Or to heaven?!
Day Sixteen: In Death
In death, he gets shitted on by pigeons! And well, not many of us get a statue.
Day Fifteen: Voice
At the Golden Temple, Amritsar.
Why did we invent language?
To diminish boundaries, or the other way around?
All religion is serene;
It’s we the people, who’ve sort of forgotten
Why we created religion in the first place.
It’s us, always been us,
Who downgraded one religion, or the other;
Ours was always the better one.
We fought wars,
We conquered.
Day Fourteen: The Hungry Man/Dog
Day Thirteen: Fall
My infatuation with the university campus knows no bounds!
Day Twelve: The Lord in the Mountains
He’s gone; the Lord
He has left.
He’s in the mountains, alone.
He’s not looking down, nor up.
Not right or left.
He’s looking inside. Looking.
He’s smiling.
He’s sad, and angry. But not happy.
He’s smiling, the Lord.
He has left.
He’s in the mountains.
Day Eleven: Washed
Day Nine: Reflections
What do you do when you see your reflection;
Not in the water, or a mirror either. But
In a person.
Its almost like seeing a ghost.
What do you do then?
Reach out?
Try to grab it?
Talk to it?
Or do you scamper off in your closet? Scared.
Day Eight: Martyrdom
They died here that day,
Died.
They did not do a noble deed,
No. They were not martyrs,
They were victims. Of some general’s desire
To implement, to enforce, to scare.
They were not martyrs.
Had you told them, they’d be killed for gathering in the bagh
They wouldn’t have arrived that day
I think.
I wouldn’t have had at least.
Day Seven: Questions
Day Six: Green
The glorious fields of Punjab

Spiderman!
Day Two: The Lone Patch

Photographic Memory
My first memories of being captured, on a photo film that is, consist of me being rushed to the terrace, followed by a change of clothes and a brief touch up, which is followed by introduction of two more kids almost the same age and then one of my brothers clicking the picture.
