Whose fault was it anyway?


Whose fault was it anyway?

                                             Return of the classic! Set menus are bringing the fine dining ...

Whose fault was it anyway?
They said at a parley,
To discuss the fate,
Of the less fortunate.

Anger surged on the outside,
Of the fortunate sitting inside,
Arguing over the issue,
While saying, “please pass the tissue”.

Tissue to daintily wipe,
The mouth after devouring fruits so ripe,
While not so far from this superficial grumble,
Empty stomachs did rumble.

Rumbling stomachs slept on the tracks so cold,
“Help will come”, they were told,
By the Lord! It did arrive,
And eased them of the burden to survive.

    To be honest, it wasn't anybody's fault. You think that there is someone to blame, but this is the actual world, cruel.

Breathe

  I breathe now, To live and laugh tomorrow, To fulfil hopes and goals, of several loved souls. Each breath makes me wonder, How do they stay asunder? From loved souls who have them in a hold, Just to get someone a breath so bold. Their breaths are muffled, As they keep up their hustle, Not stopping to breathe, Eternally resting with just a condolence wreath?

The Double Tap Conundrum

The Double Tap Conundrum The entire millennial generation is hooked onto the social media. This is not bad or good either. It’s a personal choice. The need for social validation and being a pack goes back to the times when humans were hunting and staying in groups. Times changed drastically, we all started hunting for food using supermarkets and our arenas of food became the wonderfully decorated aisles and the sale boards. Our clothing issues changed from covering for protection to covering for self-confidence and happiness because who are we kidding, everyone feels confident when dressed properly and looking dapper. Our basic needs are still the same, with the addition of the internet and the accessories and additions that come along with it. Social validation is one of the most important catalysts of human development. If a person feels like the society like and confirms him or her…then that person feels satisfied in being.

Footprints

Footprints Has anyone seen, Little footprints so keen, On the sandy shore, Where the wind blows galore. Inquisitive footprints that freely ambled, Near the lowly hut that was in shambles, Running along the shoreline, A pair of which were mine. Mine, or were they figments? Of imagination’s colorful pigments, Washed away by the waves that rushed, Memories, that got shushed. Shushed, but now awaking, Is that a cuckoo singing? I swear there is no change, In its melodious vocal range. Change I do observe, In the memories I now conserve, Gone are the happy footprints, Replaced by ambitious newspaper prints.     Prints bearing the works, Of those dining with fine forks, And silver-plated knives, While the ordinary crowd like bee hives. Hives of confines, Social and mental fake “I’m fine's", Strangling of fictional aspirations, By the grim factual realizations. How will justice reach the strangled? R...
