"bombay" poems
That workaholic lady who's always on call, keeping up with the market fall. That newly married lady with chunky red bangles, returning to her father's big castles. That person who's scared to get lapse, so stays active on the google maps. That person who swings like a kid at the back door, Or the one who perform calisthenics on an empty floor. That next door girl with a red lipstick, flicking her shinny hair & gossiping with her clique, That dreamer gazing outside the window, That overworked soul dozing on his elbow. That 21st century kid, listening to Eminem & playing video games. Or That 90’s kid, listening to Jenga Boys & playing outdoor games. That banker with a big fat stomach, filled with his beautiful wife’s love. That lady who eats like a thief, in her big fat bag hiding a beef. That old man who can’t stand Bombay's winding turns. That granny spotting & criticing  every fashion trends. That man who has Raju Rastogi’s concerns, thinking & chanting for earns & returns. Those kids who believe their job is to fill the voids in a battlefield, in the still crowd surpassing like electrons into a magnetic field. That lady sitting under cold seat like a glacial, than standing with 7kgs in a crowded central, & tryna stay sane listening to George Michael. That geek who switchs from Linkedin to Arjun Reddy, when the masses flee into the scenery. That trader crunching numbers so rapidly, when the stock prices go down hourly. That person on the last seat, diagressing from work & gazing around, soaking in her pashmina, with a career newfound.

The local, strides through the rotten rails, Metal to metal, rust to rust The boggy sways and along with it, the hangers who Hang in there, not by choice but by the might Of time, distance, and bills to pay The feeling is mutual as we stand, sway Push, pull, and grab on to anything just to balance Yet the journey never ends It only begins.

The Bombay Local
Spiders. Snakes. Late nights, due to the fact that once I saw a possum in our garage when it was dark out. Good looking people not thinking I'm good looking. Holding children. I might drop them. My brothers growing up to be just like me. Shark attacks. Jumping off high places. Headphones that go too deep into my ears. Going the opposite direction of so many cars. I'm the only one going my way.  They're probably headed the right way. They're probably having more fun. Realizing that, after being on the road for a while, my high beams have been on the whole time. Sorry. Cockroaches. Family reunions where I'm not sure if that really attractive girl is my family or someone's friend. Climbing up the stairs of the Bombay ride at Wet N' Wild because there just slabs of stone I can see under. I could slip and fall right through. Enjoying bad bands. Letting my girlfriend look into my eyes. Talking on the phone. Growing up. Refusing to grow up. Reading this over if I ever finish it and realizing that I am something less than a regular human being.  Probably an animal of some kind. Frogs. Big animals. Waking up one day as the same person I always have been. Standing still. My parents. Not spending the rest of my life with the girl I swore I would. Texting people too often. My parents dying. Whales. My teeth being this awful the rest of my life. Braces. Making people think they offended me.  People never offend me. Writing anything that's ever as good as Ernest Hemingway.  How dare I think that I ever could. Running too hard.  My heart might burst. Being unreasonable. Am I unreasonable? Sticking my finger inside an air conditioning vent in a car.  I don't know if there's a fan in there.  I don't know if it'll take my finger off. Getting people's hopes up. Letting people down. Fish. Bees. Being a teacher. My laugh. Wearing bad clothes. Holding her hand too hard.  I might cut off circulation.  She might get mad. My brother disapproving of what I do. Heaven because it sounds awful doing the same thing for the rest of forever. Finding out I've been gay this whole time. Cracking my fingers. Being a parent. Whales. Final exams. Paranormal Activity 4. Singing on cue. Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. Eating insects. Whales. Silence. The open ocean. Whales. Whales.

eid beckoned, and so did visarjan being a keralite the stomach craved for Sadhya so I found myself on Onam day inching closer and closer to a meal gone cold as the engine revved an unforgiving sigh I swore aloud with all my might, the city didn't even stop to breathe, as mount mary fair blew my brains to sleep only in bombay will one see, religions cohere so beautifully

Through the confines of an air-conditioned cabin
the Himalayas rise there is snow on the peaks I watch it from my bed I gaze and gaze at it in the morning as a little village girl goes by sniffling with cold I too am cold it is chilly here in Tosh in May but a young Israeli boy took off his shirt and stood on the fencepost of the guesthouse dancing down was the deep green valley all of us watched in admiration the next day I went down to the waterfall which from here is a beautiful whisper in the air there are donkeys and a path and pretty houses on the other side of the valley and everywhere there are people smoking hash and relaxing in the cafes and the guesthouses it is almost like a pilgrimage smokers keep coming and sit around smoking talking I pull down my woollen cap my arms and back feel the chill despite a thick sweater despite a blanket and a four inch thick quilt I roll my joints and smoke them alone sometimes smoke them with others I look at the hills and the valleys and the wooden houses I look at the white peaks glowing in the sun and talk about CCR and stained glass art with Michael from Norfolk who’s going down the valley to another village for a party tonight with his young Spanish friend I talk about Bombay with Puneet and Manya from Kanpur who’ve come here on a Bullet Hash Heaven Manya says reading my mind as the joint passes on to the four engineering interns from Delhi and all the time I sip on ginger lemon honey for my sore throat until on the last day it disappears unlike the young Israeli girl’s pink laptop in a pink cover found by the part time caretaker in the garden on a pink chair she left behind last night because it was too dark come again the guesthouse boys say to me as I pay them what a scene I think how cool as I begin to leave the village down the dung-clotted stone steps nodding to the smokers coming in.

Vada Pav Stop
your eyes don't glisten like they used to just saying it's not something usual for you *so I guess you're heavily imbued with this crestfallen attitude?* yea I know, I've changed in the same way my own little reverse-breakthrough Risque foreplay with ultramarine Bombay before stepping in to emcee the Devil's soiree And no, you really don't --and honestly never did-- know me; you only knew one of many façades I brazed on my face in the midst of a cliche New Year's day typa haze During the phase of my infamously tempestuous craze I was precipitously *(ignited quite possibly by my own flaring sparks)* set ablaze with praise but my mores seem to be misplaced probably somewhere in the frenzy and hysteria So I guess I'm left to embrace my untraced boundaries *And get my viridian eyes back to glistening on their own viridescent terms Not codependent on the hollowed adulation and sweet-talk from bamboccioni*

Here I am, drunk again Bombay sapphire, that sweet sweet gin. The warmth it brings, the cares that leave Even if it's just momentarily. I feel good! No, I feel GREAT. I want to hug all of you, who think you're a mistake. You're beautiful, you're beautiful no matter what your past. I promise you you're beautiful, as I sip on my newly filled glass.

With a Jewish religion and a German Queen, Who has a clue where the Brits have been? Mum’s clan were Huguenots, Dad’s maybe Welsh. Lots of Africans in our football teams. Keep out those immigrants many do say, Even those whose parents came from Bombay. We’ve lots of patriots from Pakistan: The younger generation, Brits to a man. But some are Radicals I hear you say, We should be sending them on their way, Back to Asia where they belong, To the tunes of a UKIP song. So what is “British” we must ask, For this is not an easy task. Justice and Democracy I hear you shout, Tiny islands with some clout. Shakespeare, Beatles, Rugby Lions, Churchill clapping foes in irons. Let’s be glad that we are free And settle down to a cuppa tea. Paul Butters

True Brit
Yong Marx, yet to die, jumped out of an air-conditioned car, a journey Berlin to Bombay as the Dream merchant of Utopia metamorphosed him into a subhuman white bearded national bourgeoisie. The third world girl who was climbing a tree without Motorcycle- Diaries hung to her clothe looked like an Engelian mistake possibly not from Cuba, Zambia or Bolivia, certainly not a Soviet artefact. Alienation, self-affirmation and all unlike modes of production confused his surplus brain. The dichotomy of imaginings and reality with the girl proven anti-thesis kafkaesqued him an added ****** struggle. A shift in his struggle with a smile on her lips gave a hint of welcome to her Animal Farm. He did get inside. The moulded furniture, preoccupied sickle and the lacking exploitation left him a disappointing proletariat grin. She opened her mouth, blue words did not discharge. Neither the mid wife nor the revolution pumped her conscience. He got up, disappointed, alarmed, cursed the chap who misdirected to a class-less renewed pattern. “Comrade” she said shaking his hands, the blood did stir for a moment but the fight less slant , **** suits and her distant reality pained the rationalist. The amusingly alienated young Marx jumped into his car and left for utopia.

When Marx came home
The sun is a glaring Mom. She has Nine toddlers in pull-ups robbing a liquor store They scream like goblins coated slippery in A+D, (but the money tastes like sand) buttery streams of light in the air that smells like chewed fireworks. Baby Blue silence. Then “Langston McCaw! LA County Sheriff!” the Sheriff is dead McCaw is an accountant over at Sherman and- But he doesn’t like to talk about it. Sun setting sets the air habanero “Look about it” the babies cry Those chubby voices of rage. Liquor quivering milky and hot I ripped the roof and reached- J-Dog has snatched another thief And he will take the lil’ ***** to the holding cell that thinks Where he will be questioned by ten petite police These babies won’t bite the bakers back again! “Si tu vois ma mere” broken Bombay bottle sings in despair as Giant mother tomato sun fell, Madness doesn’t cease it goes around.

Mom's Lost It For Real This Time
O, come a little closer - hear what I have to say, I know that one piece of writing can be interpreted in so many different ways. O, but do pay attention to my word-play, To the picture I’m trying to portray. O, I hope by the end of this you will understand the image I am trying to convey, But do not get me wrong, the end of this is something I am attempting to delay. O, it is saddening to know that sooner or later my rhymes will fade away So I will replay, replay, replay. O, how I pray that what we have will not decay. Like all the flowers & bouquets that I watched wither/die a bit more every day. O, but how pretty were they? Sad to know that each & every single one was thrown out like the contents of an ashtray. O, how you must have noticed the repetition of O’s - I think they are here to stay, Unlike my pathetic, childish rhymes that I am struggling to hold at bay. O, do not get me wrong - the rules to rhyme are so easy to obey, They are so easy to slay. O, like tray, cafe, puree, For god sake, even JFK. O, please tell me - do you see the problem on display? Do you see what I am trying to say, what is coming my way? O, it feels like a betrayal No, no, no that’s not a rhyme. I need to rhyme, I need us to be okay. Ray, clay, Bombay. Tray, fray, mae. Ray, clay, Bombay. Tray, fray, mae. O, please stay I need us to be okay. O, I know repetition of words is not a rhyme, Nothing more than copy & paste. Ray, clay, Bombay, Tray, fray, mae. Ray, clay, Bombay, Tray, fray, mae. O, please I don't want us to stray I hate how we went from white to grey. O, please I don’t us to end this way, I know I am barely rhyming but I will try my best, okay? Look - ballet, allay, hooray, Hay, weigh, olay. Look - ballet, allay, hooray, Hay, weigh, olay. O, please stay I need us to be okay. O, I know repetition of words is not a rhyme, Nothing more than copy & paste. I’ll come up with more, Dismay, replay, is-lay. Tray, cafe, valet, Delray, Alleyway, Chevrolet. It is not that I don’t know how to rhyme, I just need something to rhyme for. Rhyming is synchronisation, it is compatibility I just need to know we are. Please, stay, stay, stay, Don't go away, don't go away, don't go away. Please, stay, stay, stay, Don't go away, don't go away, don't go away. Ray, clay, Bombay, Tray, fray, mae. Ray, clay, Bombay, Tray, fray, mae. I know I am barely rhyming, but I will do my best okay?

I tried to drown you from my thoughts last night. Me, and a bottle of gin. I do this every night until the taste of your love no longer lingers on my tongue. I keep doing this. I keep failing. And every morning, You learn to swim.

the stream
I thought it would be more romantic than this. I thought it would strangle me with its strangeness Walk up to me with a sword in its oriental mouth And bump into me, Jolting me out of my occidental seat into the stinking dust of the gutters. I thought the Mohammed Ali mosque would wrestle me to the ground with its shocking bare immenseness. I thought my nostrils would burn with the assault of unnamed spice. I thought my ears would crumble with the muezzins call at noon, When all the dogs in Cairo enter a canine Koran reading contest. I thought the pyramids would crush me with too much history and indifference I thought the city of the dead would turn my gut over in its emptiness and blank windows I thought the Nile would bewitch me and turn my blue blazer to Joseph’s coat I thought Tuten Kamens chariot would run over me I thought so much and I thought so much That it brought me here where I would not be except for Cairo For Cairo was a poetic enema And purged some foolishness from me. She lightened my load And with her sister Bombay Will always be on my cerebral medicine shelf To take in case of cabin fever.

Going To Cairo
Here's the thing-- I don't like to lie. So, if you asked me where I am from, I'd have to assess you and your prejudices before announcing in a single breath -- "I am a Malayali from Bombay raised in Saudi Arabia." My identity comes in as a triple threat. And people treat me like an escaped convict "Oh, how many burqas do you own?" "Four, and they're still not enough to save me from your ridiculous questions." I don't like to lie. So, I'll tell you I've had a terrible day and the best thing that happened to me today was lunch. I will voluntarily admit that my feet hurt in those shoes And I'd rather be at home. But, my pen refused to stop writing. I choose not to wrap my truths in acceptability Because my identity does not need to be graded (not like I deserve less than an A+) I decided to let my bottom sit on a throne in my own mind Rather than at the feet of self-proclaimed lords of the universe I'll fix my sights on what's here today. I'm a queen of my own will; Of shoes that fit and jeans that never will. I am also confused and I write to confuse some more. Maybe I'll just wrap myself in words And hand myself over to you and say -- "Congrats! It's a story."

I swear I need the pulpit Cuz life is kinda through with And the ones that I'm not cool with Is the ****** I went to school with Yet I'm clueless How is it that the ****** I grew up with Is the ****** that stay tryna be up on that **** **** ? But trust this **** ****** can't never fit inside my crew Cuz squares don't fit in circles, I learned that around the age of 2 And also that you never play around the ones who playing you So play at school is something that I never found the time to do A conscious dude, I am one Life on earth, it ain't fun  I often contemplate of ending it with grandad's hand gun But god's son, I am him And suicide just hands in My soul to the devils home so I just roam until my life ends But til then, I'm chilling, stacking millions to the perfect height.  With all these shots of liquor, I black out to all these perfect nights.  I can't remember nothing but this Bombay got me feeling right And thanks to this ciroc I feel great up on some higher life My sorrows of tomorrow disappear through this bottle  But once I wake up from passing out its full throttle Cuz life ain't slowing down cuz I got a couple problems  But problems cant stop the kid, nah they never stop em Plus stopping ain't a option when you living life with no regrets  No fears of dying cuz I'm patiently awaiting death So these risks I take our nothing, their just needed for this epic quest That I'm taking right now to show the world that I'm the very best.

I slept with a chick the other night only because she needed a place to stay she figured she owed me but it didn't feel right. Of course she faked the enjoyment and of course I feel like she was just a roll in the hay She thanks me and then blames it on her unemployment. We would have been better off reciting poetry and sipping on martinis with gin from Bombay But between the two of us there was no chemistry. I try to remember her name and I try the worst attempt at convincing her to stay But it sounded extremely lame. She put all her clothes together in her backpack and her flight took off with no delay I have no luck she will ever come back. So now I go to facebook to see her status and what do I see and I knew that this would sound like a play so now she just unfriended  and blocked me

The loser
And I'll still be here, drifting with the ocean waves, watching birds brewing storms, painting this heartache dawn with hypnotic charms. A letter in a floating bottle, dwelled with words I couldn't say, If I fall tonight, I won't be dismayed, for in lost time and in befallen faith, I sing this hym of love and some hypnotic bands will play, A muse tranquility of sorrows intoxicating my heart at downtown bar in Bombay.

A letter in a floating bottle
We are on the "no call" list Yet, our telephone still rings We've a sign that says "No Pedlars" But, there's people selling things Showing up and disregarding The sign that we've put there They won't accept the fact they've trespassed They really do not care We get calls from companies Who aren't allowed to phone And when we say "we're on the list" They leave us alone It last for just two hours Then they call back again We start the "No call" salsa From the beginning once again. People drive by and they stop They say our house needs work They saw it from a mile back They must think I'm a **** I figure that their eyesight great For our problem's not out front The problem is around the rear They're just searching on a hunt Have you ever asked yourself How do they "fly by night" For they're all so full of ******** They couldn't muster any height They tell you that they did some work For the lady who lived here But if they're work is so **** durable Why did it only last a year They're nothing but cheap hustlers Who want to rip you off and leave They're just out to get your money They practice to decieve They've never got good papers To show just where they're from And when you ask to see them They hightail it and they run The honest ones leave me alone And they do not cross my step For they read my sign "No Pedlars" And they leave my place...with pep They move on to the neighbors They do not wait around They don't look inside my windows They just evacuate my ground There's salesmen doing driveways Professionals, these guys ain't All they want to do is Cover up my drive with paint They ask about my eavestroughs It is blocked, that's why it drips But, it has a gutter cover That's help on with plastic clips They phone me during dinner And they say, "Hi, my name's Jay" But they sound as if they're calling From an office in Bombay They know that my computer Has a virus I can't fix And if I let them in my system This problem they will nix They prey on you not knowing And they catch you unaware So if you don't know these people i'd advise you please take care You can tell them really nicely Or you can tell them go to hell But right now, my phone is ringing It must be Jay upon my cell.

I’m a running kind of guy Hopping through Bombay smoke with an open palm grasping every cloud with my fingertips gripping Nothing but air a Fine man photographing Tequila sunrises to send to his beloved waiting Endlessly by the shore and he just Can’t see why her phone is dropping drenched Like his throat (he only drinks when he wants to) When the right time strikes never Checks the time unless the hands hold wine and Light his cigarette A normal **** Bumming rides and piling nickels thinking The essence is different if Spelled in french a Running freight train aiming For the hill for Mullholland where No one knows his name he’s Alive kicking and Screaming raging Through the night and Crying in the morning when He lies sweaty and Watches the sun rise says **** *** to his shadow And turns around Just an ******* Enjoying his ****** life

Mother Said ***** ******** and Threw Me a Name Tag
we'd walk with our noses up, sovereign against the grey, moving sky. we'd pay skinny women with wrinkles like canals on their sagging faces, with yellow teeth of ash and smoke, and flitting eyes, buzzed off coke, to buy us brandy and cigarettes in the small gas-stations littered like filters around town. i'd convince you, and a girl with silky hair like frozen rivers, to run down in the safe enclosure of night in suffocating fields, choking in ice and reduce our clothing to dark shadows scattered around the moon-reflecting snow, and to run bare and naked, with our ******* taut and heavy against the bitter winds. we'd be wearing heels like deadly cliffs, thorns like biting roses, stealing little gulps from each bottle in a tall girls liquor cabinet, a tiny mouthful of butterscotch *** bombay sapphire sliding down achingly painful, dry gin exploding our tongues. a little bit of Tennessee whiskey, it was always my favorite. we'd crawl out looming windows like dark, slanted mouths, into the night on top of a shrouded mountain, silky underwear, goosebump legs, and celebrating her first real shot. we'd be laying on mattresses under the breathless stars, eyes heavy, cement filled and hazy with hash. we'd be on my bed, listening to brand new, because it reminds us of words unsaid, and kisses that wont be taken back. smoke a cigarette for me darling, wont you?
