23/M/Hyderabad/Secunderabad In search of my voice.
How drunk is drunk to me. I hear men drink the sweat of their heart away. I try it every night. Spend my nights in bar till I end up fist fighting. Till my mouth fill with blood more than whisky. They won't **** me, they love their lives. But I won't stop till they run away. As I walk back to my apartment women look at me and frighten like I'm an animal, which I wish to be but- When I reach my apartment, I ask myself if I'm drunk enough. And I would say myself, try better tomorrow.

How drunk is drunk
When I was a kid, I had a labrador. He was beaten, beaten his blood out of his face. I wish I can help him. But I was beaten too. By my daddy, sometimes by my mommy too. I used to go to school to escape the chaos in my house. The school was worse. They bullied me throwing my water bottle away. I was whipped for that. For losing my water bottle. The labrador used to stare at me, he wishes he could help. I went house without pens, napkins, torn notebooks, sometimes torn uniforms too. whipped, whipped, whipped my childish pale flesh. One day I walked to house without a pencil eraser. I was not sad. I was not scared. I got beaten a lot of times. But- I went house and saw my labrador dead. I did not cry. I accepted my quota of whips and took a long walk outside. I did not cry.

I used to go to school to escape the chaos in my house. School was worse. They bullied me throwing my water bottle away. I was whipped with my dad's leather belt for loosing my water bottle. The labrador used to stare at me, he wish he could help. I went house without pens, napkins, torn notebooks and torn uniforms. whipped, whipped, whipped my childish pale flesh.

My Labrador
India is about to war on Pakistan. I'm busy getting my degree. Climate is burning the ice. New parasites are evolving in our lungs. Immigration is devastating employment. But people are busy paying their bills. Spaceships are surrounding us. Government is announcing a new refugee scheme. ISRO is launching forty satellites. But kids are busy practising their parents' signature. Young is busy risking life to buy marijuana. Youth is busy begging for jobs. Adults are busy spying kids' notebooks. The world has enough problems already to make something new. It is like adding a new task in the to-do list in the rush hours. Bees becoming extinct. Well- let me get my degree first.

We have enough problems
There was a tadpole who lived in a tight pool. He waited to be a frog before fainting the winter fog. To hop in hard land of dry sand where huge trees stand. What happened when he hop? For his unluck, against his hope. He fell under a giant boot, instead of on a tree root.

An unlucky frog
Leave the stars be flying, by seeing your beauty, they will be dying to stark. Leave the bees wandering fruitless, if they witness your sweetness, they will be wondering thoughtless. You are a flower dipped in dew. He who made honeydew, must have mad you.

Sweetness
Some poets mislead you. "Don't give up" is written by those who write "Leave when it hurts." They confuse you. Leaves change colors with seasons. Poets write accordingly. Sometimes, they behave homeless. Poems are fake. They write in masks. People say beautiful things. But they don't follow them They knew they are wrong. Poetry is not a philosophy. It's only a confused poet's diary. So don't read poetry. Or atleast, don't take them serious.

Poems are fake
I was all fine in every reason, yet you wrecked me like I was none. I'm still holding to my obsession But you changed like a season. Now it seems like a part of your theme. When I'm still flowing in the stream, how could you walk away with no esteem like it was all one dream in a dream.

A question
She is making tea for her poet-husband. Wondering what her husband is writing. Once he wrote "Charm floats on her cheeks, like a paper boat on the water. Dipping and dancing." Or maybe he is writing something ***** on her. Like once he wrote - "Between her thighs is the temple where I belong." She is making tea for her poet-husband thinking he wants to impress her again. She can hear his pen tapping his teeth. But she can not see whisky on his table and she can not see he is watching her sister as he writes.

A poet-husband
There is a goldfish living in a shoe. Afraid to get out and see the sky blue. There is a goldfish living in a shoe. Who once lived in water which is blue.
