INFERNAL HELL

(I wrote this on a dark night, and its allegorical in a way, and I think I know what it means, but to what extent. I think I got the music for it too, and if I ever learn the guitar or the piano then I know how to tune this)


No, This is Not the End of this World
Maybe Just a Catastrophic Swirl
Receeding Into Shadowy Realms
Crawling Back to the Deep Infernal Hell

No, This is Not Where Everything is Going to End
Maybe Just Going to Curve and Bend

But as you Bend While you Mend
And you Ascend to Unbend
Cease to Crawl as you Stall
There is a Mighty Big Wall

Could You Not be Back on Your Feet
Then we'll go up the Concrete

But I Just Saw a Massive Army Waiting on the Top
Screaming Shouting Crying Demons, Don't They Ever Stop

But You Stop, And You Drop
And You Look Into Know What
And You Gaze, You're Amazed
Looks Like There is to be no Escape

But, This is Not the End of this World
Maybe Just a Catastrophic Swirl
Receeding Into Shadowy Realms
Crawling Back to the Deep Infernal Hell

And, Crawl Back to Your Deep Infernal Hell....

Rat Chase!!!!!!

(Advisory : This Blog is best read while listening to the song - Johnny B.Goode)

A sunday morning, and a splittling headache. Oh God! I don't even drink and I have such hangovers!! :) And I lay quietly listening to Keane and Pink Floyd. But there is a lay that says that a still body can't stay still for a long time. And thats it, I was called on my our cleaning maid - Sonia. Her name, is a source of constant taunting my cousin, whose girlfriend's name is the same. But this is not her story.

So with bleary eyes I went to see what this was about. She pointed out that a mouse was dead. She was pointing towards something, but I cudnt make out any mouse down there. Sure! I wasnt wearing my glasses. But I bent down to see, and indeed a mouse lay still there. Oh God! Why does this have to happen when I am alone at home. So unwillingly I went to get a broom (Jhadu). And so the plan was to move the mouse into the dustpan, and I throw it out. Ewwww.

As I tapped the still mouse with the broom, she said that it's still alive. But I am sure I didnt see it move. Sure! I wasnt wearing glasses!!! But still I went ahead with my plan, and the mouse zipped to a nearby corner. OK! It's a live mouse! She suggested why dont I pick up the mouse and throw it out. I looked at her as if she was speaking in some other language. Me! Hold a mouse!! I guess she understood what was going inside my head by the look in my face.

And then she tried to do something that I thought even she was incapable to do. She tried to grab the mouse by the tail! Hehehe! That was funny. The mouse just jumped and ran into the bathroom. And she darted into the bathroom to chase it out. I looked on eagerly! Hehe! And there was the mouse! And lo presto, our big dinosaur friend, the lizard, was on the wall near it. Oh-oh! I hoped the lizard wudnt gulp down the mouse. That would be a bad sight to see, early morning. But she shooed away the lizard. And then this crazy rat chase began. From the bathroom to the kitchen, and then even though the doors of the living room was closed, it slipped into the main room. And then, as we tried to search it out with torch and brooms, the mouse had seemingly vanished.

And then I suggested that we give up the hunt. I didnt have my glasses put on, and I was sure I wasnt gonna be able to stop the mouse in a dark corner. And then just as I sat reading the newspaper, the mouse limped out, and was going straight towards the door. He just needed to be pushed along his way out. And yayyyy! He's gone! Thank God for that! Hehehe! Mice are really funny. And when we have see these two mice running around in our home, chasing each other in almost in cartoon fashion, skidding as the turn while running, it always makes me wonder why they are chasing each other. Maybe I will catch one, and divulge this out of him one day. But that's for another day. Phew!
