I Cheated My Girl

I Cheated My Girl  

TOP Those sparkly eyes 
Looking at me tenderly
Wanting to be carried
Wanting to be loved
I had to go out 
I had to work my craze out
I had to put her behind the curtain
Pretend to play hide and seek
With the start of the light
I craved to listen to my heart
Go back into her arms
I dared my brain for a second
Giving not going out a thought
But truth dawns heavily
I had to go ditching my love
Still with the twinkle in her eyes
Not knowing that she will be cheated
Started the game of hide and seek
But truth dawned on her too
She hugged me not wanting to play
Showing her finger towards her bed
Pulling me to sit with her
Not wanting to play anymore
Me being a lady’s man 
Had to listen to my brain
Nor did I want to play then
I knew I will cheat her in the game
My heart still fighting my brain
Brain pushing me to cheat
I had to cheat my girl
I had to cheat my love
Feelings from fathom fighting as ever
So I pulled her to the game
Of hiding and seeking
The moment I hid behind the curtain
Made sure that she would spot me
I cheated once already
She spotted me readily
Now it was my turn
To cheat her again?
She ran to hide in the bedroom 
Ever expecting me to come in
I had to listen to my brain
Picked my car keys
Fled in a furious dash
To the front door
Ran to the car
Drove like mad
Reaching office was must
I had to cheat my girl
I had to cheat my love
I had to cheat my daughter
Still with the twinkle in her eyes
I had to cheat my daughter...

I The Revenant!! (I live to tell the tale)

By
I really have no idea what to title this, tryst with destiny, final minutes, death at doorstep, light after darkness, reincarnation, second life, how I cheated death, My Life = 1300 Rs, I The Revenant, Sea rescue... But I am sure why I am writing this, I do not want to forget anything which happened on this day. It was early hours of Sunday, December 18, 2016, day after we had Mahpeede Mahablu show in Baindur.  We wanted to go to the beach till sun rises, come back get ready and leave to Bangalore at any cost before 10 AM after breakfast at 9 AM.  So we slept late, since we were in the same beach till 11 PM.  We went in at around 6.30 AM and tried to get into the sea at point 2 in the image below.  Later we realised that the current here is too much of the Sumana or Baindur river, force of the river was enough to make the sea water less salty.  This is clear sign that the current is super strong.  Looking for a suitable location, we moved to location...

My Article on Kannada Theatre Scene

By
Kannada Theatre Scene Ninth Century AD: King Nrupatunga wrote Kavirajamarga in the matured script of Kannada. It is the first recognised literary work by any author in Kannada history. Being a set of poems it was recited to people at numerous literary gatherings. Hence, we could also categorise it as the first script in Kannada literature. Kannada theatre has seen a huge wave of changes from the times of Jaina Works, Vachana Literature, Dasa Sahitya till today's Modern Kannada. When you go to the new look Ravindra Kalakshetra with improved interiors and exteriors and interact with the Kannada theatre activists, you get the same look and feel, as it was many years back. You still get to see the old scripts, which are, staged every week and meetings/readings going on in the Samsa Open Theatre. However, when you ask them the question of this article "what happened to the new age writers, why are we going back to the age of Shakespeare or of Karnard?" Everyone unanimously a...
