𝓐 way with words, and words with way,
𝓣hat matchless wit, and gestures firm;
𝓐 leader tall, with gentle sway,
𝓛ike Sun he shone, shining his term!
𝓑uddha, he made, to smile once more,
𝓘n roads, he made, his inroads strong;
𝓗is reforms made the Lion roar,
𝓐nd yet he fought the battles long!
𝓡emember him, his early days,
𝓘n Sangh he found his calling true;
𝓥ivid, his speeches set ablaze,
𝓐nd rapidly his stature grew!
𝓙ust words I have, feeble, to share,
𝓟ride too in heart, that he had sown;
𝓐 hope to live, A dream to dare,
𝓨es, like he sang, new songs his own!
𝓔ject the emptiness inside,
𝓔mbrace his ambitions with pride!

Om Shanti!

"Who will you vote for?" asked Moh diffidently, for she knew the responses she would get.

"Ugh!" said Eeny with disgust. "Who goes to vote?"

"I heard there is no AC in those trolling booths," added Meeny.

"Polling booths," corrected Moh.

Mynie just shuddered at the thought.
"I meant," lied Moh, "that if you were to *hypothetically* vote for someone who would that be?"

Eeny said, more to herself, "I *love* those dimpled cheeks."

"Me too," said Meeny.

"I adore his dimples too," said Mynie. "He was bloody brilliant in Chak De!"

They all laughed.
"How about Modi?" asked Moh.

Three glasses of wine met the floor at an acceleration of 9.8 m/s² and the spilled wine looked like blood on the shards.

Three pairs of baleful eyes stared at Moh. She was made of sterner stuff than the broken glass.

"How about Modi?" she repeated.

Nehrendra Chol̠an was the greatest ruler of the Chol̠ā dynasty, whose influence extended to all past, present, future, and unknown regions of the Universe.
I once travelled with a most scholarly taxi driver when in Sangiliyandapuram. A Vulcan, he talked about how Nehrendra and Spock helped sustain Indo-Vulcan ties. Nehrendra gave Vulcans their salute. Live Long and Prosper. 🖖
The carpenter from Krappatti who conned me into refurbishing my kitchen was most knowledgeable. An elf, he talked about how Nehrendra and Elrond worked for Indo-Elven ties. Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo.

The bubbly quartet walked in and took their usual nook in the terrace bar.

Eeny ordered Cabernet Sauvignon, a suave name for a wine, and along with it, some hors d'oeuvres, a sophisticated name for chakhna.

"Supreme Court finally allows women inside that temple," started Eeny.
Meeny, who had never been to a temple in her life, rolled her eyes up. "Why would anyone go to a temple? It's just oh-so-superstitious."

"Ugh!" chimed in Mynie, who considered her last visit to a temple when she was 3 as a trauma to be remembered.

Moh was sipping her wine.
"It's not about you or me, fellas, but all Hindu women who have been oppressed for centuries by the inherent patisserie," said Eeny, picking up a phrase from some article she had read.

"Patisserie?" asked Moh, feeling hungry. "Did you mean patriarchy?"

"Whatever!" said Eeny.

God said, "Let there be Light," and there was light.

And the Light was bright, and God said, "Yippee!"

And God made a vessel to hold the light, and said, "Behold, for this is Lamp!"

It so happened that the light was extinguished and the lamp was broken, and God was dismayed.
And God said unto Herself, "What the," and left the statement incomplete.

And God looked around the enveloping darkness and saw a dark Shape ominously approaching.

The dark Shape said unto God, "You may be the Lady of Light but I am the Doyen of Darkness. I am Andhakar."
And God saw Andhakar, a black outline against the darkness , his black eyes set in a dark face with black hair and black beard.

And God asked unto Andhakar, "What is in your hand?"

And Andhakar lifted his hand and Lo! Behold! A black ribbon appeared and Andhakar cut it atwain.

And the innings starts with a single from #TeamPatra.
#TeamBOTCH reads the googly well. Surprise. And a dot ball.

What a way to get out by #TeamBJP. Flopping the bat like a sword. Hit wicket. (90000 ₹)

Rahul, Kejriwal, and Trudeau walked into a bar.

The bartender saw them, took a deep breath, looked up at the sky-themed ceiling, and said to himself, "It's gonna be a long day."

The bartender greeted them and turned to Rahul, who was in his best torn kurta and untorn jeans.
"Sir, what would you like to have?" he asked.

Rahul grinned confidently and said, "Let me ask you the question. What would *you* like to have?"

The bartender swore under his breath, "I would like to have this evening off."

"Royal Salute? Scotch?" he ventured with a smile.
Rahul's face changed as the grin devolved into a smile and evolved into a frown.

"Royal Salute? Scotch?" he echoed, and called Pidi, who was always there wherever he went.

"Write a tweet," he bellowed in a mellow manner for his voice was not meant to carry far.

Pidi waited.
