O Fair and Lovely and Intelligent Queen

One crimson sky and a foliage deep green,
Once held a valuable valuable to preen.
This invaluable valuable that turned Miss Muffet's tuft green,
Was Such a Fair and Lovely and Intelligent Queen!!

Who prided herself on her wonderful voice,
And chanted 'incantations' of her marveled poise!!
So much that Old  Hubbard of the cupboard was left with no choice,
Than to roll-call and pick out one of her autograph boys!

This valuable queen had a hand exquisite and deft,
And a calculative brain that lent itself to theft.
The charming Prince Charming so impressed was left,
That retired our Cinderella to the cinders and wept!

Von Drake went gaga from a pah to la-la,
And broke a Mickey's majestic plane for senorita !!
But who knew, our clairvoyant Queen, on preparing pita,
Could engineer back the damage like a pinch of asafoetida ?!!

'Eureka! Eureka!' yelped Archimedes of Syracuse,
Before our Queen's ingenuity gave him something to muse.
Oh, our beloved Fatty could not but stooge,
Pauper or postman, the lady saw him through.


Penned the fine madame like William Wordsworth,
Cracked jokes to send you rolling down Earth.
Roasted fine marshmallows in hearth,
Filled the Earls and their twirls with mirth.

And when old Clear-Orf puffed and huffed,
And dear Monsieur Poirot sniffed his snuff,
And Plod sat beaming over gleaming handcuffs,
With Holmes in hot pursuit of his toughs,

Our Fair and Lovely and Intelligent Queen,
Claimed her price was less fair than mean,
Mocked my invention, with conviction,
'It's hard to build a perfect being'.
All your favourites, who surpasses,
Overtakes them by several notches,
No one dreamt of such a thing,
Such a Fair and Lovely and Intelligent Queen.'

Predictability Plays Spoilsport

"Comfort's journey from the familiar to the unpredictable..." In the age of AI, if you are an AI Engineer like I am, you would swear by predictability. It's indispensable. We will find patterns in your genetic tree. We'll find them even in your whim of a Gulab Jamun or Barfi. We'll try to connect dots that are distant by miles. Yet, I'm here to tell you that we cannot afford predictability today. Sounds crazy and totally contradictory right? But I can be weird.   I'm here to tell you about randomness. I want you to experience it too. Well, you're smart people, readers. I may not be as smart. You know why we can't enforce patterns.   Someone will read them. Someone will exploit them.  Someone will feed them to an AI (Tool) and figure out what to do with them. You see what I mean? I'm being random. Randomness is not entirely useless.  I want to be equally random. I am stupid, gullible, naive and I'm wandering... You can say that I can be ...

Clandestine

Sometimes we wait too long, To speak our minds. We let lingering truths linger, We let sporadic clocks, chime.. We allow patient seams to fritter away Like a sparrow does with the timber of the tune That she was shrouded by; shrill words tearing  Ears, each word she utters, careful, today. While the first day it was a free reign, until Some unctuous winds carried to her, criticism. Just the same way as copper utensils in a house Of steel, are anyone's delight, until bronzed,  With wear and use, both are the victims Of sundry needs and glances. Just the same way, some things, Are stowed away in careful pockets Because they have borne a lot of perusing When kept in the open.  Like love. Like hurt. Like envy. Like silence. Trust and truth are two things I can list, That are given, that are l'habitude. I tell the truth because it is, it exists, It is what I perceive, it is what I've lived.. And I keep your trust, because I've learnt That it'll help you keep mine, it wil...

Threads of One Fabric

We are all threads of one fabric- The fabric of the human experience. Embroidered by effort, dampened by tears, Emblazoned by ambition, creased by anger- We are all threads of the same single fabric- Which is the fabric of our human emotion. Emotions that flow, those that can't Those that sneak away, waiting to be discovered- And those that comfort us In times of distress. We are drawn by our emotions like puppets tied To a string- becoming caricatures in the live play Which is our every day life. And yet, it is  These emotions that define us. You, me , everybody- Tied together by shared experiences that are Composed of shared sentiment. And yet, pangs of doubt refuse to depart- Is that which I'm feeling, justified? Is it alright? I say to you- I think every feeling has a place. Yours, mine, theirs, everyone's. It's got a role to play. So don't hold it back, pin it down or push it away- There's a definite reason that it's here for you today. Differences defi...
