Far from the maddening crowd

Taprobane. Serendib. Ceylon. Sri Lanka. Call it what you may. Its far from the choas of the last few weeks. And thats all I need at the moment :)

Namma Madras

Walks on bessy beach, pongal from murugan idli kadai, plays at the museum theatre, the music festival, a drive on the ECR, Sunday mornings at woodlands, swindling auto drivers, playing wii at blur, Sathyam cinemas, coffee at amethyst, brunch at the Eco cafe, The chocolate laboratary,the bangle shops outside the mylapore temple.


There are many reasons why i love this city..and I just completed ten years in the city!

Keeping fingers crossed

For the first time in my adult life, I am putting my personal life before my professional one. Not sure if this is the right thing to do in times when people are glad just to have a job.
Ah, but as my favorite sitcom star says - I hope I make the right decision or learn to live by the wrong ones.

Now Listening

Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick,
and think of you
caught up in circles confusion--
is nothing new
Flashback--warm nights--
almost left behind
suitcases of memories,
time after--

sometimes you picture me--
I'm walking too far ahead
you're calling to me, I can't hear
what you've said--
Then you say--go slow--
I fall behind--
the second hand unwinds


if you're lost you can look--and you will find me
time after time
if you fall I will catch you--I'll be waiting
time after time

after my picture fades and darkness has
turned to gray
watching through windows--you're wondering
if I'm OK
secrets stolen from deep inside
the drum beats out of time--


if you're lost...

you said go slow--
I fall behind
the second hand unwinds--
