email cue- Humor

During lunch my colleague was enquiring what on earth was worrying me since that morning. I knew he was aware my wife left for her parents’ place and it was quite sometime ago in the last year. I then confessed to him that only yesterday I forgot writing her the email before shutting down my PC. He wondered, “Was that a big deal?” I said “ Indeed. It is. Before leaving she swore she would return the very next day I stopped writing.”

TAJ --just wonder

Been there once.

Touched the walls,

felt the vibrations of love

labor and pride, of moon

in the day, of prison cells,

a marked passion,

of thirst for power,

pride of a dynasty

and nation, of nationhood

and identity. I then posed

for picture with wife,

and jumped in the air

for a trick pic saying,

Wah... Taj !

I never mind

it is in new seven wonders --

sure it is the only wonder

of everlasting mankind

and everyone's love,

a Taj Mahal of his own.
Except for the pain,

uncertainties abound

thereabouts of life;

nothing should interest

unless there is deeper stake.

Found everything a commonplace.

Nothing to look forward to,

but for the past revisiting;

too tired and vexed.

No new steps came to

that should be belonging to God.

Listened to Him from the above--

an ear pressed against the floor.

Crawling things entered

my each pore.
