Moved

Hi!
I've moved to live journal... http://oldpondfrog.livejournal.com

Let's ask the man cub

You are just a man,
Homosapien,
With an attention span
Of 45 minutes.

You are the only naturalist,
to discover,
some species are monogamists,
others prefer,
the sexiest partner at hand!

The classic questions are closer
to home
including those improper
deviant folks

Will Maugli choose Brad Pitt
Or rather any woman in sight?
Will he barter for it?
And interestingly wait for night?

Misogyny, polygamy, prostitution.
Incest, pedophilia, Freud.
Its an astounding questionnaire man cub..
You think we have a one size fits all?

For each choose strongly agree to strongly disagree
on a scale of 1 to 5.
And hurry up we don't have all day
what you are you? decide!

Besides...and i mean to be helpful here..
IF you can't fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run
Then who will call you a "man" my son?

Around the corner

So you are completely convinced that this one event will be just great. But there is a catch....it will be revealed to you indefinitely. Anytime, anyday, any month or maybe not at all.

So you wait..put your life on hold and wait. With irrational desperation and uncalm.
But you can't be seen that way so you look relaxed and act indifferent.

It strikes you in snatches that hey this is not such a good idea. But the ball is rolling and going fast...downhill!! It perhaps works out. It perhaps breaks.

This may seem like an inevitable rollercoaster ride . But surely a part of you is convinced thats it worth the g forces.

Memories from a trip to Waynad.

The long journey through coffee
plantations with driving directions
in native accents. Also two
flat tires n some paranoia.

The farm lands leading to
the forest and finally rolling hills,
Mango vendors, forest temples
wayside shops serving robusta coffee.

Oh and thoses butterflies
blanketed streches of road and
flapped away as I drove
except darting, courting couples

A waterfall desolate,
at the trip's end gurgles and soaks me
weary inch by weary inch.
I am alone yet feel embraced!

-------------------------------
And btw if you have never bathed alone at a waterfall or been to Waynad....both are highly reccomended :D

Today a sudden recollection came. Sometime last year a Turkish lute player was performing here. It was magical music composed by the mystics of Turkey.

The artist asked us to refrain from clapping and appreciate the music in our hearts. Piece after piece the magic flowed and in each gap there was only a mesmerized silence. It added something extraordinary to the evening.

Many heart-felt things are like that..when you express them...they somehow change, somehow diminish!

A day...away

It's close to 6am and I am excited about a trip I am making to NYC today. Quite juvenile eh but remember I haven't seen the outside world in months!!

Work is hectic as ever now but I start feeling distracted when the load becomes too much and that slows me down even further...bad cycle! but not the worst :D!

Sometimes when everything is crowding in. I want to bike to Kerela. Maybe I'll just walk to Central Park today ;-)!!

Talking about silence

Thinking about rather than doing.
Talking about silence.
Analyzing music.
Loving love.

Lost in indirections, in thoughts.
More thought than what helps,
Than one can help.
More is less.

Par yeh dil maange more :-(
