The Cigarette Stench


This poem summarizes how a beautiful a lady was before she was away from smoking and later, how the addiction spoiled her being. 
Hey woman... do not spoil your being 'coz there are people who love you so much... This ones for you on World Tobacco Day! 

Erstwhile,
With skin; so untouched, the countenance so gleaming..
Those lips; so beckoning, parroting the stories of a savoir faire..
The metacarpus; so primed, dashing off the prodigious contemplation...
Your portal and dentures; giving an endowment to relish the flavors of aliment..
With coiffure; so furbished, breezing you in so conspicuously..
That avidity in your perceptions, revealing your ecstasy..
The cardiac organ of your body; so undiluted and inclined..
Those pleura and the brawn; bequeathing a vivacious debonair drive..
Like a woman of protoplasm; casting out redolence..
Oh beautiful lady; so resplendent, so awe-inspiring you were!!!

Extant,
With skin; so slackened, surface so much ashen-ed..
Those lips; so parched, puckered under the smoke..
The metacarpus; so daubed with a fag perched between them..
Your portal and dentures; vociferating with the carcinoma..
With coiffure; shriveled and pauperized..
That purblind perception; proclaiming the doom
The cardiac organ; feather-bedded and enervated..
Those pleura and the brawn; fatigued and sagged..
Like a bag of bones; gushing the poisonous stench..
Oh afflicted lady; so unrefined, so besotted you have become!!!

All the world is a stage and most of us are desperately unrehearsed.                                                               ~William Shakespeare~ We all see Mumbai as a City of Dreams but have we ever wondered how people actually land up to this city and what really it takes to live that dream? Well, India is precisely a land of villages and small towns where millions of dreams take birth and then those dreams mobilize these artists to places where they strive to make the best out of it. One such dream is being lived by Manav Kaul, an ace theatre director, filmmaker, playwright and actor. Manav has emerged as a brilliant actor in Bollywood, most recently in Citylights and Kai Po Che. He has been doing great work in theatre and his notable plays include  Shakkar ke Paanch Daane, Peele Scooter Wala Aadmi Bali ...

GENIUS BY BIRTH, IDIOT BY CHOICE- Story of my life

"If you really want to do something, you will find a way. If you don't, you will find an excuse." ~Jim Rohn~ I’m sure you all must have seen or heard about THREE IDIOTS; a movie that instigated young minds from the early 2009-10s to pursue what they love, no matter how many fingers are pointed against them. Similar is the story of this young lady who was born a genius but chose to be an idiot. But mind you, being an idiot is not at all easy in India!  Two years ago, I graduated as a Genetic Engineer, First Class with Distinction from Chennai, got an A+ in my research project and managed to win a thousand hearts in my university. Not just that, I qualified GATE and ICAR exams in the very first attempt. But is that enough? Well, people here are considered successful only if they are able to crack college placements, enter into IITs and IIMs, travel abroad for higher education or grab a PhD in the respective field and so on.  I was a sheer f...

In this world of machines, people prefer to sign up for gyms and other fitness classes and are seen doing vigorous activities to shape their bodies. But how about the people over an age of 40 years; Are they ready for a heavy workout at a gymnasium everyday apart from their daily business? In the era of modernization, most of us have overlooked the conventional form of exercise known as Walking. Only because it sounds too simple? It is not just an exercise. Infact, a lot more can happen over a walk. Let us find out.
