  • Melting Smoke

    There’s a version of me. That wants to melt. Not like a molten lava cake served to you. But like a smoke. A melting smoke. You won’t get it. It gradually flows towards the destined slope where it touches the shore of the ocean and enters indistinctness. Without a want. Without a need. Without a…

  • The Missing

    She can live, Without him. Like she did before, Without another him. And the one, Who is about to come. No one dies, When someone leaves. Parents survive, When the children grieve. And children divide, When the parents leave. The affairs evolve, And companions are swapped. Life partners are changed, While tracks in the park,…

  • Vengeance

    #JusticeForAmmar reminds the following rules of the world: 1. There is no karma. There never was. Except for some random incidents that happened randomly to make people believe otherwise.

Because, There’s not an inch to claim.Some nod and get.Some wink and achieve.Some smile and have.Some point and reach.But, no. Not he.…

  • MDCAT 2023

    Good luck to over 66,000 MDCAT students today. See! You all won’t qualify. There are not that many MBBS seats. Some will miss the test today. Some will be asked to leave the center. Afterwards, a whole lot won’t be able to score competitively. And it doesn’t really matter in the long-run. Your life will…

    Once upon a time, a Chief Justice went against the Boy. The boy got angry and dragged the chief by his collar and threw him out of his office. This angered the law fraternity. They stood up. Turned around. And burned the citadel down. The boy had to run away out of the country with…

  • The Art of Selling 101: Sugar

    First, you make sugar. With cheapest labor. Subsidized electricity. And rent seeking. Then you share your output with the cartel members. Numbers. Tons. Then you export the sugar.
