torment.

further my soul,further my whims!

gather my lust,gather my chains,

father my dreams,father my children,

rubber my piston,rubber my reputation!

later my love,later my demons,

lesser my desire,lesser my libido,

forever my name,forever my shame!

sooner my war,sooner my death,

longer my pain,longer my lineage,

never my bow,never my servitude!

honour my wish,honour my ash.

poem in red - a poem not intellectual stimulant

And now i love again!

as naked ice lusting away!
a new isle looms ahead,
and night is long again!

am now in lateral abyss,
asking Nancy,islands lonely,
at least !

Ah! "no!" is loud again,
Amiss,still nothing is,
yet...pain.. love awarded!

this is not for intellectual stimulation,and so will be considered bull-shit in another blog where intellectual children write critiques!

poems in red - not liked in intellectual blogs

she is my gal,
and i'm goin to keep it that way,
that means a lot of work today!

she is tall,
and she is growin taller still,
makes for the ever increasin bill s!

love is a ball,
and it is hard to dance till one,
but if legs hold yes it's all fun!

be my gal,
not till eternity,but till you are young,
that is the truth on which i'll be hung!

on a movie..(written for a dying blog)

ignorantia!

yes,movies don't you love them more than you love pop corn? (sad state of pop corns is one reason)

but i've got an hour n half,two at a maximum,and fifty rupees in my pocket and nothing to do but while away my time...can anyone tell me a better way on a friday?

the thing is a movie is not tuition class, or a place to check your observation skills unless you are some weirdo!

and you must be a one in a million of the snobbish pseudo movie critic...who just doesn't seem to know the ordinary man when you are ordinary in every sense but for the fact that you just don't seem to like what ordinary people like,maybe you have got it into that head of your's that you belong to the rat class!

so you like Ingmar Bergman? what about Werner Herzog? Hey wait Pedro Almodovar? or is it the French new wave? Maybe that Korean guy,uh! what's his name ? Kim somethin Duk?


Now,jokes apart,let me ask a few questions of you..

Why do you watch movies?

a) aesthetic appeal
b) photography
c) screen play
d) adaptation
e) acting (method acting/etc)
f) direction
g) sound engineering
h) social conciousness
i) pre production
j) post production
k) background score
l) original soundtrack
m)cinematography
n) nonsense?


Now,i'm not the next,next,next Martin Scorsese, but the man in the next seat for all i care! and i know no jargon...these filmi tend to use!


And what do i care?

a) big screen
b) beware of rats
c) the seat
d) beauty
e) good music
f) first day
g) the pop corn (if i can afford)
h) a happy ending
i) 50rs well spent

And what i most care about is my 50rs being well spent or not and how do i gauge that?

can i afford a critical evaluation? sorry no can do,won't have time to think of anything if i feel cheated!

when do i feel cheated? when i get out of the theatre in a foul mood,when a movie brings my dreams to a halt!

YES! Dreams to a halt,people can go on about showin that of India,this of India,Dogs,millionaires and what not...but the bottom line is,as an ordinary man did you enjoy or not?

If you did,well money spent well!

If you didn't,well the ordinary man would've given Danny Boyle a mouthful of expletives,without lookin carefully at how the lightin was used,or the sound engineered or whether there was a glitch here,there everywhere!

Hell...even if there was no reality there he wouldn't complain,provided he gets to smile in the end,two and a half hour of jolly ride!

Honestly,no movie runs on the good will of the critic or the intellegentsia,well maybe Adoor's does....

and it is high time we realise that the ordinary man has excellent taste!

and taste acquired without knowin wikipedia exists!

hell,this is the man who watched Sholay a thousand times without knowing the technical finesse the movie had for that period.

i bow to the ordinary man,and the good movies he has seconded!
conded
i sow my doubts on the critic,which movie have you ever seconded?

FEMINISM (written for a diff. conservative blog)

I'M A FEMINIST !

believe me when i tell you,i'm more of one than any you see around,pseudo or not.

So,let's keep this plain n simple.

What should a woman be?

she should be a woman,if she can't be one,she has lost her cause in nature and otherwise.

Who is woman?

A creation of nature,one half of the other mistake without which further mistakes won't happen. And if those don't happen cease will be the line of nature's most complicated piece!

A woman is one half,the other half being the male,now why i state so is because both halves should realise that the term human being is actually a plural,and if one thinks human refers to it alone,then we have a problem of unequality in the world.

What makes a woman?

A woman becomes a woman when she realises that she has a duty to nature! if she doesn't then both i and nature will be left scratching our heads.


Now,
wondering why the above statement is stated so?

well,it is because you see at the height of feminist idiocacy is the feminist stating i'll not be a mother. so what is she proving by doin so? is that how she asks for equal rights,by forgetting her right to motherhood? well apparently some feminists think so!

or is it because that is the way you prove you are better than a man? hell,the west was won because the pioneers were lookin for better land to till!

See,that is not feminism.

SO,what is?

Now,i need not state,the usual stuff of women being trampled upon etc etc.. we all agree on that except that group of people with tilak on their foreheads and ram in their mouths!
oops in the frenzy i forgot our other funda'mental'ist brothers yup the cover all in black look down at your feet Taliban kind. well in a way the black is good cos if you go against their weird rules for woman,ladies the rest of your family will be wearing black as you give 'tears in heaven' for your first and last act of feminism!

again got carried away,i'll tell you what feminism is in my book!

It is plain ol'EQUALITY !
Something the woman didn't have or knew they had till the Industrial Revolution,and don't question me on this,the woman didn't plain know till then,period!

And a woman who fights for equal rights for woman to that of man is a feminist!
i repeat 'equal' rights not "more" rights!

And Equality is very important,and it is the very essence of human rights,so if a man votes so should the woman,if a man can sit in parliament so should the woman,if a man can work night shifts so should the woman,if a man can drink at a pub so should a woman!

NOW let me stop!
and ask you ladies this, Do you or do you not have the rights to do all of the above?
YES,you do...legally or otherwise.

So,how did you get it,well because of sheer effort put in by true feminists long before your time. They got you the rights which honestly didn't exist even a wee bit.

SO,if feminism is a fight for Equal rights and women have Equal rights now,then logically Feminism is dead!


THEN,stop calling yourself FEMINISTS...you are fightin for a cause already won for you!


So,cut the crap about equal rights etc etc and start thinking of educating about the rights achieved for which you nor anybody needs to cling on to feminism,what you need is social-activism!

THERE are woman going through hell in this world and have no idea what to do,and even when they know they have no means to do anything about it. So,can you provide the means?

Wait,providing the means might put you in some deep shit,can't dirty your hands but still want to do a good cause for feminism and not your sisters,huh?

SO,can i suggest a less harmful alternative,educate the woman of the possibilities or things they can achieve.To be honest i think Doordarshan has done a better job in uplifting the woman of our country than our Feminists. Ever enquired of the state of woman under the NREGP? Ever wondered the state of woman in our prisons today?
Even wondered what happened to the poor woman raped by police men in our own Trivandrum court premises? Do you know what happened to the woman during the Mutthanga incident? Do you remember the protest by nude woman against the Armed forces act?

CAN your feminism put an end to all this?

YOUR'S CAN'T BUT SOMEBODY ELSE'S CAN ?

you will just light a match stick here now cos someone lit a fire a long time ago.well the fire did it's trick some time back so no need to light anything now!


SO what do we do?

Say,we kiss feminism good bye and start social activism,cos these days you have all the weapons in your hand..weapons for which feminists fought for. Now when you are given all the weapons you asked for,you are doin nothing with it but asking for more!

more and more...is the cry of a mistaken soul !

YOU've to not educate the woman alone you see,you have to educate the men too.Make feminists out of men and not women!

Some traditions must be done away with,some beliefs killed and a lot of teaching is left to be done.You see for a woman to walk naked across my street and hope for no man to go berserk is too much to ask today,but asking for it tommorow is not a crime. So how will we go about doing it? Calm his carnal instincts and how is that? Make him less of a beast,make him educated right!

why did i say educated right? because even good education doesn't stop it,but the right kinda education will. Social education,i.e change the mindset of society as a whole,i'm saying this in 09 and expectin results in '29. Now this is a doubly difficult job because there are other elements at work who aim at exactly the opposite direction.

So,the least i.e the bare minimal we can do is make sure our kids turn out right and that much we owe to a better world!
