The Chariot Starts rolling

Morning shows the day. But Souravs' Kolkata Knight Riders proved it
false with 11 run win. In the very first over Vaas stopped the
shouting of all kolkattans. We thought that the luck of Sharukh's team
is set in the Arabian Sea. But not really that. Shah and Mathews
played a knocking partnership and set a 161 runs target for Deccan
Chargers. Glichrist tried but it was not enough against Kolkata Knight
Riders who charged themselves for a long awaiting victory. This was
the first match of IPL. And Sourav's boys proved themselves. There is still a
long way to go and we hope for the best. And we must believe that
Morning Shows the Day.

Blindfolded and dreaming

There was an old balloonwallah who used to stand beside the stairs of Ambuja. We used to meet on those stairs everyday after college hours. He used to smile at us.We were 6 guys and 2 gals. It has been many days. We all have taken our seperate routes. Last time when I visited the stairs alone, the balloon wallah

was gone. My friends we gone. I bought a pack of cigerattes and started smoking. I was never a chain smoker but stiing on those stairs made me one.I smoked five cigerattes at a stretch My hands were trembling. I realized that I have come so far that tears will simply not come.

I saw the good old Arambagh stall in front of me. The guy has changed. The look of the stall remains the same. This was the place where we used to have our lunch. At 5 in the evening. Chicken burger. Only 10 bucks. I feel so ashamed. I have grown old. I have grown fat. I drink a lot nowadays. It has become a habit. Yesterday was fun.Yesterday I was happy. I went forward and bought one chicken burger. 20 bucks. It tastes pathetic, but I feel so good. It tastes like home.

A new group has come. They are sitting on the stairs. I guess life is a cycle and every thing has to end someday. The others will have their turn.

Kolkata is the place where I want to be. Forever. Even if I have to sacrifice all the gold and diamonds of my life. My lust. I will sit here again. Watch the vehicles pass by EM By Pass. I will stare at the young ladies and think of my past, when I was someone. I had friends. Now all I have is silence.
