Some memories

Raging fires,
Beseech my soul,
The water of life is drying out slow,
My soul is burning fiery red,
Oh take me now lest I be dead.

A Face I Remember

-
It's just a face I remember, But so strong in my mind, So beautiful and if ye see it, You'd definitely go blind. A flower just bloomed, Between the periwinkle and primrose tufts, So bright and mesmerizing, I just cannot bluff. Like the baby's, When it wakes up, So red and so plush, Nobody can just make it up. And just like the one you read, About the princesses and fairies, So fair, so bright, so shining, Like the sun's contrast on the prairies. And, oh, just to give a finishing touch, She wears an instrument on the nose, There she looks a perfecr maiden, From far and from close. Oh, and she is not Snow White nor Rapunzale, And not any other passing gal, She is the one from the beloved, Maybe not mine - but for one lucky fellow. And everytime I see her, I O my jaw in awe. -Aliasgar Chashmawala 13th August, 2017

Contradicting to his statement over...

Recently online, I came across this wonderful work of graffiti- a masterpiece in its own kind, albeit a misguidance to those think of it as an inferior art form. It had a very powerful message and personally, it influenced me a lot. Many questions flashed across my mind. some of them being- am I responsible for it? Or is something that I am doing that in some ways I am corrupting the society? Well, it's what we do such things that create chaos in our localities and this is how it goes: We don't pay our taxes properly, Resulting in many unfinished projects that the government started, for our 'betterment', Clearly making them take loans from private companies, http://www.business-standard.com/article/pti-stories/bengal-seeks-world-bank-loan-to-finish-projects-before-16-115110900110_1.html Which makes them increase the taxes they levy on our businesses and incomes, Which, in return, makes us go away and start rebels on streets. And where it did start?...
