अनकही बातें दिल में ज़ख्म कर जाती हैं

अनकही बातें दिल के किसी कोने में जा के बैठ जाती हैं

फिर वहीँ पे धीरे धीरे घर बना पत्थर बन जाती हैं

दिल का एक कोना भरा भरा सा लगता है

उन चट्टानों कि दरारों से दरियाएं आती हैं

दरियाओं में घुल जाते हैं हिम्मतों के बाँध

फिर नज़रों से अश्कों के झरने बह जाते हैं।

THE 55 word story....MY take

"hey sweetheart.. whats up?"
"nuthin babes.. watching this really silly movie called juno.. sister talked me into it.. I really don't get HOW these people just randomly get pregnant after a one night thing.. i mean..no such thing ever happened to anyone I know.. right??"
"um.. i have to tell you something.."
"what?"
"I'm pregnant"

shadow in the light

it happens sometimes...
in a roomful of laughter
that a sigh escapes me
a memory intrudes
words trigger images
emotions
and i run from my memories

ankhon ankhon mein kuch baatein kahi jaati hain..
baton baton mein zindagi likhi jati hai
likhte likhte jane kya khayal aye
ek sawal se ashk ki jhadi beh jati hai

Pope, in Africa, Says Condoms Aren’t the Way to Fight H.I.V.

Shows how much they really know about ground realities doesn't it...
when their 'moral superiority' is bigger than logic and human aid... its teh same stupid belief taht says that male lust will be controlled only if women are kept veiled... that says taht untouchables are 'dirty' because of teh family they are born in.. let alone the fact that teh family may have left the 'traditional' occupation aeons ago... its teh same mind numbingly dogmatic ideas that put teh onus on the woman for 'inciting rape'...

a huge part of africa is currently in the grip of an AIDS epidemic.. and tyhe pope says condoms are irreligious bacause they "encourage amoral behaviour"... hello??? u really think that the poor souls who've gotten the disease from their spouses didn't deserve a chance to remain unaffected??? abstinence and chastity are one thing.. but what about teh hundreds and thousands of women and men who have been affected because their spouse already had teh virus from somewhere... millions of women in africa are victims of rape.. does a man who married one NOT deserve a chance to stay perotected from the disease?? millions of women are affected because their husbands have had multiple sexual partners.. why should these women suffer????

hell yeah pope.. preach abstinence all you want... but don't discourage the use of something that will ultimately help mankind...
