One Leg

2010-06-26T22:25:07+02:00

The bird stood there, in the middle of the floor of the subway station. He looked right and left. There was no food. The woman opened her polka dot duffle bag and took out a bagel from her soup kitchen bag. She broke it into small pieces and put it near the bird. He limped on one leg to get his food. She zipped up the duffel bag and walked to the street. from a little distance she turned to look at the bird. He was still in the middle of the floor, all alone

Out of Here

Please, please! I want out of here! She pressed her hands on the subway pole really hard and wished her stop would be next. No, there were 7 more to go. And nobody to give me a seat—a tiny little space on the light blue thing. It is not just the subway, she thought. It is everything. Hard is hardly the word to describe the way things are. Out of here! I would fly away like a bird and never come back. I would take what matters most to me and just disappear. Thinking of out of here makes my heart race. It is such a nice, healthy idea. It is an idea whose time has come.

Bird Of Prey

2009-04-02T14:55:00+02:00

Just before dawn

when it’s not dark anymore

but not light either

when everything is shadowless and grey

and only exists through soft whispers

and innuendo

and the air feels like pure silk

softly stroking his body

while the stillness of his motions

almost makes him seem sheer endless

but life itself lacks all meaning

other than to exist

that’s when he wings the sky

looking for prey

Little Bird's Life

2006-05-12T15:15:00+02:00

A little bird is building a nest

with lots of care and natural skills

His offspring will need the very best

and thus he slaves and strives without any rest

to create a little diamond in the rough

any less won't be enough

Then his struggle for a mate begins

he flaunts and fights

and won't give up until he finally wins

Six little ones to watch over and care for

to feed and with his life to guard

but three fell to the ground and instantly lived no more

while the fourth left the nest a bit too premature

That reckless chick drew a particularly sad deal

and ended as a stray cat's nutritious and tasty meal

In the end only two of them survived

fully grown and test flown

they've left the nest

and now every year for them too

it will be the same strife

A nest, a mate and a new brood

because that's how things go in a little bird's life

Flying Flu...

2006-02-22T09:16:33+01:00

So finally, the most awaited (not really) Bird Flu reached India!

India's first bird flu cases have been reported in Nandurbar and Dhule district in Maharashtra on Saturday. Yet, cases of Bird Flu have only been reported in Maharashtra and Gujarat states (its good that im far away from them, and it will take some time to reach here!!)

200,000 chickens have been culled so far and 50,000 died of their own, they suspect that the deadly bird flu virus, known as H5N1 virus have evaded India by the immigrating birds from far eastern countries!

Anyway till it is sorted out, keep away from Tandoori Chicken...

REY!
