The Killing Fields of Nandigram


Dear Tanushri,
 
India will become one big concrete slab with innumerable Industrial Plants, Small Scale Manufacturing, and Bollywood, but without a blade of wild grass, or a wild flower. Yes, we will have gaudy parks and revolting topiary. There will be no people like you, compassionate and caring; no effective writers, thinkers, philosophers among men of action, like the breed of men who got us our independence - just their shadows growing taller in the setting sun! Corrupted and corrupting, we shall all become  rich enough to import everything we cannot make, like food and oil. Then, who would need the farmers and peasants? So, let us not hinder the Industrialists and the Government Goons grabbing all the arable land a la Nandigram, and hasten to our marble palaces! I love Calcutta, but loath the CPI for what it has done to it!

Ten Commandments


Truth by its very nature belies all description of it, Yet in every lie there is a grain of truth. The true philosopher sees logic in this and forever remains silent, observing without the need of defining the observed.
 
The fact that most of us cannot remain silent, suggests that we have a long way to go!

Wonder Wonder in the Sky


Sir,
Is it possible that you have had a sunstroke, or gone bananas?

Found in Translation


Mine is more than a comment on this blog. I have read with much pleasure all your featured blogs this afternoon. You are a thinker, a humourist and a writer of distinct style, using the English language of  modern usage, without making it vulgar. When entertained, I try not to be the one to watch and appreciate without letting it be known. Do keep it up!

Timbaktoo


Whose ego? Pakaj Kapoor's or Abbas Tyrewala's. I used to know the latter extremely well as a young talented script writer, and also as a very reasonable man. A good script writer is more vital to a movie than a box-office face, and with no offence meant to Pankaj Kapoor, if Abbas, as you say did not budje, there must have been a very good reason to which neither of us is privy. Opinions are mande when people stop to think!

Love Songs---Let’s dream together, my love


On this one of the  very rare occasions of surfing on Sulekha, sifting through page after page of inanities and crudity that defy the so called developing India, I came across your romantic nature and poetic refrains; a breath of fresh air! Though, perhaps, much older, I still empathise with your sensitivity and wish you all the best. Do read some of my work and let me know what you think.

Fellow blogger,

Ronnie Patel

Woman on Top


Thoroughly enjoyed reading the remarkable narrative that flows with its own innate rhythm; fiction of youth in factually mature hands!

My Left Foot


I sympathise with your left foot, empathise with your beautiful mind, but why did you categorise "My Left Foot" as poetry? And so made me read both your posts? Still, I don't feel cheated. Happy new year! - Ronnie Patel

The epic of Quintus


A potential that needs a lot of polishing that comes with care and a larger vocabulary, and, of course, good editing: spelling & grammer. Not anywhere near a Vikram Seth Golden Gate that seems to be the aspiration. But, keep at it!
