The Closure!

Hey,
The theatre  has opened.
Here begins the finale.
The dessert of the grand reception has arrived.
The minister of closure arrives with
the good wine kept unserved.
Here comes December, the final play.
Contemplate everything you have done throughout the year. Compensate.
You have 31 days before you.
Breathe in some good air.
Meet people before they hibernate.
Complete the procrastinated things.
Fill in the year's resolutions.
Grind all bad things and flush it off.
Read out some warm stories to children.
Feel the baby snowflakes on the ground.
Be grateful.Smile.
Carol is out there, sing and dance.
Hang your stockings.
Give warm hugs.
Love and forgive.
Run and slow down.
Cry and laugh.
Fall and rise.
Lose and gain.
Wind and unwind.
Act and live.
Pick and unpick.
Grow and learn.
Let the bells jingle.
Reindeers are waiting.
Pack and be ready.
The minister of closure is about to curtain down the twelfth play.
And your journey is about to begin.
And when it's the resolution day,
undress the costumes and get into the sleigh.
Go for a ride till your next role.
And yes,then I will bid you adieu until the curtain rises for the next play!

THE SILENT CRY

Darkness ...at  its  zenith Silence.. at  the sound 's lowest decibel.. I wrapped  myself up into the blanket tears rolled down my cheeks.. I cried.. I cried in the dark silence silently.. No voice of my cry.. I bite my hands.. I cried silent loudly.. I cried for the dreams unfulfilled I cried thinking of my unpredicted future.. I cried thinking of my unknown death.. I cried thinking of my  inabilities I cried  thinking of  the gifts  not given to me I cried  thinking of my people.. And I complained  God Almighty for the miseries given to me.. ... I   wiped  off my tears.. I smiled. Perfect... Nothing is better than this silent loud cry..!! A.C

Kaathal - The Core Breaker of 2023

  Kaathal - The Core is one of the movies of 2023 that left an ache in my heart. It's the kind of movie where you just sit and stare at the wall for hours after you finish it. I keep thinking about the pain of Mathew, Omana, Thankan and Chachan and it is something that continues to haunt me. Mathew’s pain is something that has become part of him by living the prime of his life pretending to be an integral part of a heteronormative society. His calm and meek personality is like a dormant volcano that is likely to erupt anytime. When he confronts his pain with Chachan and Omana, we see him peeling off his outer layer of crust and showing us his core. The core, that has carried deep wounds of fear and shame of coming out and confronting his fears, all this while.  I don’t think I have seen a more compassionate and kind woman as Omana in recent movies. Despite being in a marriage that doesn’t fulfill her needs, she stays in it for years for the sake of Mathew. And when the right ...

Little Poem

  My procrastination ends here, While the urge to write chokes my throat, My hands get paralysed as in a trance, I find excuses to write a little poem, I make up a lonely man, a distressed woman, a lovers’ quarrel, an unrequited love, But they are reluctant to play the part, Maybe i should give them a raise, Or throw a party at midnight, Maybe a few drinks might work, Only if they don’t puke. I can expect a little vandalism,  Some damage to the property and a mini scandal, Possibly out of rage. But at the end when I bring my weapons, Sometimes they get scared and back off, Some may never come back, Others find it funny and mock at me, And opportunists, seeing my desperation, Attacks me with manipulation. And all these while, my three panic attacks  talk to me in a different language, I try to write a little poem With a racing heart and flowing eyes, I write my little poem, tortured and broken, I end my little poem, Like a mighty warrior,  Who had a pyrrhic victory.
