Schrödinger’s cat



Not all names are stored
in your memory
They glide in orbit in distant galaxies
alongside a gaseous planet
revolving around a dwarfing star
I know cause I retrieved one such name
weeks after I met him at a restaurant
and had to make do with names like bro and dost

On my facebook wall
I see a friend request
For the fear of it collapsing
Into a definite state, I scroll away

Am I responsible for every thing
happening around me
Not sure if I should Observe and
bring upon the death of
Schrödinger’s cat
I kill the page

Courage Stories



Have a daughter of similar age, and my heart bleeds. Somehow I find myself incapable of singing paeans for heroism. All I feel through this girl

What border
      Which struggle
Whose freedom
       Why sacrifice

You reason
       I listen
Dad's girl
      Why him
