Tala Tale

Taala kya janta h?
Kya kya wo bandhta h?

Amir ki tijori pe bhi h
Aur garib k ghar bhi h
Sabhi jagah wo paya jata h

Par jo taala na lagaya ho toh
Ek hi smaan chahe koi heere ka vyapari ho
Ya ek mazdur
Apne samaan k liye ghabrata h

Ab yug jo h computer ka
Toh taala password wala bhi h
Pucho kisi lekhak se kya apna laptop
Bina lock kiye wo kahin ja pata h?

Kitni alag h wo cheezein
Jinko taala sambhalta h
Phir prashn ye h
Kaise usme band saaman ka mol kiya jata h?

Seth k paise gehne
Aur garib k char bartan
Ya ho lekhak ki nayi kaahani
Dekho toh sab ka hi mol ek sa ho jata h

Kyunki taala toh kabi nahi jaan pata h
Par dekhne wale ko zarur ek ehsaas deta h
Taala jisko bachata h wo dusro k liye
Chahe kuch ho na ho
Par taala lagane wale ka bahut kuch hota h.

Iss bhav ko samjh hi taala sirf apna kartavy nibhata h
Shayad taala jaanta h par bataana nahi chahta h
Kya kya wo sambhalta h.

Kavita / Poem

  The journey of my poems Some of them gush out as an outburst of emotions Others cling in my head as a punch line Many are result of unconscious observation Some are based on my values and inclination But each of them is special As a conversation with myself Reflection on society and communication between like minded folks They reveal my concerns, my desires, my fears, my state of mind My encrypted secrets, my fantasy and obviously my love too

Pyar

Pyar toh bahut log karte h Par tum.... kuch alag hi karte ho Jitna humne pyar ko samja tha Tum usse bhi kaafi badhkar karte ho Kuch log jatate h isse alfazon mein Tum sirf uska nayab ehsaas dilya karte ho Aur ye anubhav bhi itna anmol h Ki mere tark fikke pad jate h Phir jane kyun hum darr jate h Aur chah k bhi apni mushkil tumse na keh pate h Tum haath pakad mushkil se nikal loge Par hum madad mangne se hi katrate h Aisa nahi ki bharosa nahi h tum pe Bas khud se uljhan suljhane mein lag jate h

Mistaken houses

Nowadays   Houses are mistaken for home The interior design is proudly outsourced What else can explain a ready-to-move-in home, we pay for Expect the walls in each room customized For every family member While talking away rights Of children to doodle on them Or an elders tremor staining them Don’t you feel such houses are based more on market trends rather than The likes and needs of family members When the house is more of a status symbol Rather than your own cosy private space When they are indicators of progress Of material possession that ranks a family in social space When they are bigger than your needs When they are filled with furniture Just bought to utilize space and not to be used The house that was supposed to be Occupied and turned into a home These days come decked up with Art on its wall that rarely represents people living in there Rather is an attempt to either intimidate others or to fit in a social class And the little art sculptures on the shelf Sadly have no memo
