What To Write About?

-

‘You’re a good writer.
What happens to you while speaking?’

‘I can think on my feet alright.
But I need to sit on my ass
to express those thoughts.’

-

with whom we cheat on Today,
leaving the imperfect reality
for a perfect fantasy.

-

‘Weren’t you writing a book? What happened?’

‘It got shelved.’

-

इस बाढ़ जैसी दुनिया में
तुम इतना क्यों बह जाते हो
सब कुछ पाने की चाहत में
खुद खुद को खुद से चुराते हो

-

‘home’ and ‘try’.
You leave the former to do the latter.
You do the latter the rest of your days,
to return to the former.

All The World’s A Lab

-

वो अफ़साना जिसे
एक खूबसूरत मोड़ तक भी
लाना न हो मुमकिन
उसे जैसे-तैसे
जान बचाकर
छोड़ना अच्छा

-

getting to explore the world
without having to leave home.
