Bothersome Girl


There was something weird,
The curves on voluptuous behind,
A behind trapped in a tight red dress,

There was something hideous,
Devilish in some attractive way,
About the way she smiled

She appeared a story,
With a thousand plot lines
None ever advancing the story

She had a thousand plans,
Yet sat her bum lazily,
Her mind rapidly churning plans

She is attractively unattractive,
There is something about her person,
That spells ‘she is a devil incarnate’

She Shot Herself


She stood there pointing a gun at her assailant with such menace that could have boiled githeri for an entire four-stream high school full of hungry and adolescent boys. She had killed her husband, and as she put, took her life in the way only women who’ve lost their husbands can tell.

‘You don’t know how long I have spent dreaming of this day,’ she tells her assailant, who had burgled her way into her house. ‘I have dreamt that you’d show up so that I can have the pleasure of killing you one more time.’

The killer lady looks at her with those looks that tell you that she’s not going get even a single inch size bruise on her body. She’s also pointing a gun at the good lady, a teacher of languages. It could have been better, you think, if it had been those asshole mathematics and science teachers who made those subjects harder than they should have been. But no, on top of killing her husband, she is pointing a gun at her, a blameless soul, a soul that just wants to teach students about rhymes, and onomatopoeia. And  oral literature.

The conversation goes back and forth between the two ladies for a tad longer than you expect. She is here. She killed your husband. What more reason can you have to pull that trigger? Then she suddenly puts the gun at the base of her chin and pulls the trigger. She sprawls carelessly on the floor. She is dead.

It’s a movie anyway. That’s how you convince yourself. She couldn’t have done so in real life. It simply is impossible to wait for such long for someone who killed your husband, only to give her the luxury of triumph by committing suicide. The writer of the scene was a sick bastard who does not understand how the real works. You kind of liked the lady, her Russian accent was out of this world. You have a thing with accent, learn. It is not a bad way to conclude a year, you think.

But then the killer lady is the lead villain in the movie series. She dies and the story comes to an end. But at least the writer should have found a way of keeping her alive. She should have been captured and even tortured. You could tolerate her screams, knowing that she alive. Only her face, and butt should be interfered with. And her hands, and legs, and boobs…gosh…she should just have been left alone. Intact is how you wanted her to be. WHOLE. You are a whole kind of person. You have a fetish for anatomically complete people. Wasn’t killing her husband more than enough.  

Sometimes


Sometimes, at times…just one time
Step out of your skin and watch yourself
Listen to yourself really hard
Study yourself as if preparing for an exam
You may figure out why people treat
They way they do.
Not because they are bad or good people
But because you are who are

Happy Bob


Bob is happy
Bob does not give a damn
Bob does not care what you think

All Bob does is sleep all day
There’s nothing you can do to Bob
Because Bob is dead

Echo of Your Laughter


It rung in my head, competing with the ocean waves
It felt like a boat, sashaying in the waves
Beckoning me to the shores
The shores where your laughter reigns
Deny me anything, but not the luxury of your laughter

Don't You Enjoy How I Breathe?


Look at the eloquence of my breath
Don’t you simply marvel at how good I am at it?
I acquired this skill through endless practices
In fact, I was good at it immediately I was born
Many are not born with this skill
And there’s no other way of being good at it
Respirators won’t help. Never
They will endlessly bleep as if singing a dirge
Except the dirge tells you how whacky you are at breathing

The Wind


The wind snows
The rain raises whirlwinds
The dust floods
And the world is at peace
