Every place has a formula
which needs to be followed
to get ahead,
to be successful
Didn't find that formula...
Didn't look for it...
didn't know there
was a formula
still don't know
there is a formula
and its a particular one
She can't
She thinks she can...
but she can't...
Things are spreading
Spreading in all directions
Its difficult to control
Its like the dust
When it spreads
The dust particles are hard to catch....
Hard to control
They become part of the air
Air is hard to control.
Is all of them different looking people
With appearances different and not so different
From each other...
Expressing almost the same kind of sentiments
To please each other
To be accepted by the group
To not create any disturbances
Or lose a job
They all belong to the same democracy
Which has the same lukewarm acceptable expressions.
People still smoke
But they don't smoke inside a cafe
What's the point if one can't smoke inside the cafe where one
Is having a cup of coffee?
But there are rules to be obeyed
One has to be concerned about other people's health
And welfare...
Oh! really?
What about the health and welfare of the ones killed?
Killed in the war?
They are not human people
They are the enemy
The, "Other"
The distant,"Other"
People call me the. "Other" also
Yes, they do.......
Yes, they do.......
Then, you are the enemy too...........
All the ambitions crushed..
That's for sure
Absolutely sure
You are certain of that?
Yes, certain
What were your ambitions?
No idea of that
No idea...None.
But whatever they were ...
They were crushed.
A day of success will perhaps come
Perhaps...
Certainly it will come
Not so certain.....
It didn't come yet...
No, not yet
But it will come
Death will certainly come
That's final.
That's the final success...
We are all waiting for.....
I am not
I am waiting for the other success
Which other success?
Oh! its raining again...
And I am without an umbrella
'I wish that was my worry too."
'I wish that was the only worry I had
to deal with on this rainy day...
You are so blessed...
Your worry is just the lack of an umbrella........
