Rain in Bombay doesn't whisper....it SHOUTS!!!

We did 'voice of the rain' by Walt Whitman in class today....
anyone who's passed thru cbse 11th grade might know the poem...
so here's my take on the voice of the rain.

And what art thou, I grumbled to the torrential deluge.
Which, oddly enouh, gave me an answer....
or maybe it was the voices in my head...
I am the scourge of the Earth, said the rain.
I come, I see, I conquer everything in my path...
Breaking windows, flooding cars,
Stranding people, left with no resort but to shelter
under wet newspapers,
watching the flood wash their life away.
I am evil.
I am Death.
I am life.
I drench fields, crops, trees....
I am the farmer's delight, I am the city-dweller's despair.
I drench shirts, skirts, hair, sarees,
Rendering them translucent and clingy....
(Field day for perverts, huh?)
I trickle down, into your hair, your shirt,
Down your neck, drenching each and every inch of you.
Into your books, melting the pages, washing the ink away....
Don't get fed up already!
It's monsoon....
And I'm here to stay.

Headache

I'm sorry, i'm just writing for the heck of it...
school has started, and normally i'd be all jumpy-happy but today i just have a massive headache, and i feel very alone.
like everyone's leaving me........left me....and i'm alone,the weight of it crushing me like a steamroller....i feel sick
will sleep.
sorry for pointless posting...i can't help it.it's an addiction, an obssession, a need to be alive.
i'm rambling, i don't know what i'm saying anymore.....
will go.

Stagnation yet again....

So....
Goatpost finally up....
drawings not yet scanned....whennn will this happen man....
i am writing for no reason,
school opens day aftr tomoro...
and i have a headache.
i have nothing to say
so this post is kind of wasted.

The Spirits...

So!! finally up!
yay!! so this is my miracle goat photo...
these are some possessed goats we found in Himachal Pradesh.....their souls shine out of their eyes....they're all possessed....by the Goat Spirit...
We all thought this photo was hilariously funny.....

the actuality?
bunch of goats with red-eye effect.
this needs to be seen a bit bigger to get the full effect

Goat.

I had an amazing pic of some possessed Himachali goats, but it refuses to upload.
story of my life.
right now consisting of nothing....see you when life becomes eventful, i suppose...

Kiss Kiss No More....mwah mwah

So a couple of days ago i read this shocking announcement, which i guess will be more of a paralytic shock wave for all those fans of the seedier, titillating type of Hindi movies....
EMRAAN HASHMI HAS DECIDED TO STOP KISSING!!!
Kissing scenes, that is.
So, seriously Mr Serial Kisser, is that the way you play it? It doesn't sound wise, establishing a strong reputation as the ever willing, hot-lipped Serial Kisser of Bollywood Fame, right at the start of your career, and after letting this reputation spread, you just stop!Ooh, that's not good for Emraan's ratings...
Which weren't too good anyway, because of the general sleaziness in most of his movies, and Emraan with Himesh Reshammiya's aggravatingly nasal voice behind him...man, that just kills it.
Oh yea, Mr Nasal Singer....what's with the cap, huh?Are you trying out new and different retina-burning hairstyles (mohawk?cornrows?that cap could hide anything) and don't want to show us? Or do you, secretly, have a massive, shiny bald spot? What's wrong, cap boy? You ain't Himesh without the Hat? Your life-force is contained in the hat?
He wouldn't even take it off for his own movie....'Aap ka Surroor:The moviee, the real luv story'
Moviee?Why oh why do they intentionally misspell words in movie titles?
Hindi movies, that is....
Aah i forget...they're Hindi movies!
That should explain it.

The Ultimate Feminist Argument.

Doesn’t it make a lot of sense that God is female, the Mother Goddess, you can say…
‘Coz all life stems from the mother, right?
Of course, there is a mother goddess in a lot of cultures…the Egyptians have Isis, pagans have Gaia, the Hindus have a host of different goddesses…
But none of them considers their Supreme God to be female.
I wonder why, because it is the female in whose body the child is conceived, it is the mother who raises the child…
Except in the case of single-parent fathers, but that’s not the point here.
But then the thought struck…
Even the most strident feminist mother cannot deny that she needs a man to get pregnant.
So does life, in fact, stem from the father?The best form of God then, in such a confusion would be what's called Ardhanari....half man, half woman.

Sorry about the total religion-god-theology type posts...i've been reading up on it...its my opinion.

Do you believe in God?
I believe that there is something, a life-force, an energy that makes the world work the way it does.
This energy is everywhere, all around us, within us, within all that lives and has ever lived.
And then we made our crucial mistake….
We gave it a name.
“GOD”
Ok, then as if that wasn’t enough, we said: “God created.”
And in doing so, we gave this energy, this ‘God’, this formless, shapeless thing, we gave it a human structure, a human heart, and a heavenly mind.
Then started the debates….
Does God exist?
Is it male or female?
Is it good or evil?
And by asking all these questions, we have assumed this energy to have human, yet heavenly attributes.
‘Coz it’s something that we don’t fully understand, so we tend to relate it to something we do understand.
Like ourselves.
And that’s our big mistake, in all these questions and debates and theories, we’ve forgotten that there never was any heavenly entity, person-like, called God.
There was just the endless energy.
And we called it God.
When did it begin to have a human-like mind, a face, a body?
Think about it.

AbayaGirl

Say hi to Abaya Girl....she doesn't have a name. so sad na? i have some better stuff up my sleeve (in my file actually) but i'll have to get it scanned.

i'm out.

I'm not too religious, neither am i an evangelist.

Guess what?
i'm possessed...by the spirit of all the articles on wikipedia about god, religion, what have you....it really is rather interesting, fascinating, yet disturbing how everything conflicts everything else!
so i guess i'm way in deep or whatever you'd like to call it.
so i was trying to compare atheism and antigod after reading about 40 pages of the stuff....but then it struck me that i just can't do this, coz they're two distinct, different things...
gaaaaaah help.....
so if i try to think logically, this is what comes....sorry, all u non-religious people, i'm being terribly technical...
According to Genesis, God created everything in opposites (actually i haven't read Genesis, i got this from Angels and Demons.....all hail Dan Brown!!)....light and dark, heaven and hell,whatever, right?
So,presuming that antigod is the dark to God's light....God could not, then, have created the antigod since God did not create himself.
God just was.
Savvy?
so all the so-called "forces of evil" in this world, they don't really exist?
maybe...
maybe its just human free will that drives them to do what they think is right, and if it's not, you can be sure they'll justify it...
Hell why am i even talking about God?I'm a self-declared agnostic, remember?um...the fact that i declared...realised...this just yesterday, we shall forget,
sooo....Step One and Only....
We have to try and prove Her (yes if she exists it probably is a her.....because all life stems from the MOTHER..) existence.
which is hard enough, in fact its damned well impossible!!
So we prove her non-existence by using frighteningly logical arguments such as these...

1. Gratuitous evils exist.
2. Gratuitous evils are incompatible with the existence of a god
3. Therefore, no god exists.

There you go, in three short lines we've proved God to be the ultimate hoax.Churchgoers, worshippers and believers all over now have nothing.
But all these proof-writing people cannot deny the fact that certain thoughts motivated them to wrtie this proof.
thought that arose from the mind....
A mind, that, structurally can be found nowhere in the human brain or elsewhere, since the body is, in essence, your ultimate robot, theoretically cannot think for itself, without the mind.
The Mind
You can call it the ultimate miracle...
You can call it biological perfection...
or you can call it God's work.
just trying to see it from both ways here.

Stagnation

life has stagnated...
am currently pondering the possibilities of death by boredom....
no, i shall rise....
even though people fail to reply to messages
even though people have all left, leaving me to rot in this godforsaken heat
even though the feline population in my house is at war
because...
on sunday start the dance classes.
ballroom, not the so-called cinematic.

So this is boredom...

I really do not know what i'm doing anymore...
soo...i got home...launched my self into internet, art, tv etc....
out of 3 self-designated art projects i have finished two...
and yet, it does not satisfy me, does not make me happy the way it used to...why is this?
so...i need something more....
i'd like to dance, but this city seems to have a dearth of dance classes...
harmony has only "cinematic dance" in the summer (please...what the hell is that??)
i need a partner for salsa and i don't know any guy who'd willingly pay n come just coz i ask him to....
belly dancing isn't till september..........
sigh.
so this is boredom....
