Vada Pav Stop
Arjun Raj Jan 2016
Oh you saviour, of the rags and riches alike
The favourite of students, labourers, executives and wise
The in between of a mattress like loaf
Easy on the teeth, pocket, and hope
The staple of Bombay, the vada pav stop

vada
Clark Jul 2016
opposites attract, protons and electrons
profusely electrifying,
affecting the circumference of the situation.

intellectual flabbergasters
flabbergasted at the flabbergasting science behind
the fact no science or computer will ever scientifically compute this.

i think i’ve met vada.

finding my magnanimous self; selfless,
and lack of self; selfless,
wondering to how to become a better being.

there goes another beat.
i’m stood, beat.
my heart’s beaten, not beating,

and i feel beat
in this competition called life.
but that’s okay

because i think i’m in love with vada.
written last night, when i was thinking of somebody

In the city of Mumbai
When you want food and now
You reach out to grab
The glorious vada pao

A round golden ball
Filled of potatoes n spice
You have one and you are reminded
Of all things good & nice

The great Equalizer
Liked by all, big or small
Have it with chutney or chili
Whether you live in a bunglow or a chawl

Dip it in sambar
or stuff it in a pao
Have it any way
You will only say "wow"

I had one today
I ate it with glee
I have realised like all mumbaikars
The vada pao is meant for me!
Vada pao is an indian snack. A round ball made of mashed potatoes coated with flour and deep fried and stuffed between a bun called Pao.. a sort of local burger. Chawl= ghetto, sambar= a lentil curry
