Celebration, in the Changing Times

IndiBlogger Badge

In the last of the Yugas
after which the tide is believed to turn
the antihero rather than the hero is celebrated...

Hero is no longer
an epitome of virtues
one standing for truth
righteousness or peace

He is merely the protagonist
the one occupying maximum space
in the story, play or cinema of life
rather than Gandhi, his killer
is slowly gaining currency, momentum
as the hero to be celebrated....

Solitude

IndiBlogger Badge

In search of solitude
I locked myself in room, far away
The beep from mobile phone, reminded me
Though alone, solitude a mere dream…
