the dead prostitute


i stroll down the withering footprints,
where the remains of autumn lie,
the sands of time have done their toll,
the twilight resurrects with pessimism.

i walk past the withering grave,
lost in the vestige of times,
the soul which couldn't break,
the shackles of paranoia.

she has deceased in the remnants of time,
screwed by the love-stricken,
lost the soul instead for lust,
her existence had drooped away.

life had become a jeopardy,
when the flower didn't bloom,
the sun didn't shine,
the twilight took away the chastity,
in the times that have strolled away.

the bosoms lost for life's perils,
no one could juxtapose the body and soul,
the blood in her veins have ceased,
but memoirs remains in the sands.

getting scorched night after night,
to subdue existence's perils,
the winged life despoiled,
can't live anymore in
eternity's sunrise.

what life meant to be,
what had it become,
the wheel of life goes on,
but still actuated to liquidate
the body and soul.

the soul shrivelled in morsels,
left solitary in the yard,
the course of love didn't
run in her lane,
love is the fart of every heart,
which the mills of the gods,
never destined it for her.

her leaves trimmed to contours,
covered in winter with daisies,
the dead don't die,
death is nothing at all,
it doesn't count.

for in that sleep of death,
what dreams may come,
she lays solitary in the yard,
lost in the vestige of times.

IT-BHU,varanasi or IIT-varanasi???


IT-BHU one of d all tim best tech-schools of india hasn't been made an IIT though it has been part of d IIT-JEE system since 1972. after my 1 yr stay here,i wud say it really deserves 2 b an IIT.though its drawbak has been its infrastructure,but i bliv there is a serene touch in d rusty buildings of IT-BHU.its not lik d IITs, 5or6 storeyed sky-scrappers,but d buildings r more or less lik d ancient forts or palaces which in d archaeological eye wud b an art of beauty.those who hav studied or studying here know that this institution will find its name in d all time top 10 classic tech schools of india.but d main problem is with d outside world.i'm not talking about people associated with education n technological field bcoz they know wot IT-BHU is. but i'm speaking about d otherwise literate common people. large percentage of d common people know wot d IITs n BITS,pilani is,but i dont know why many people dont hav a notion about IT-BHU.

I think d main problem is dat our insti. doznt hav enough media coverage.likewise d IITs alwaz hold d limelight,in this way i bliv IT-BHU gets suppressed. n i bliv dat we r alwaz given secondary treatment wen compared 2 d IITs,though we come through d same entrance xam. if i'm correct we r generally termed as d perennial underdogs.i think in 1972 itself we should hav accepted d IIT tag n should hav been IIT-varanasi.but somewhere in my heart i still want it 2 b a part of BHU.bcoz if it bcomes an IIT,it wud bcome autonomous n wud b separated frm BHU.it's synonymous to snatching a child frm d mother.i dont want dat 2 happen either.but i'm on d verge of dilemma,wot should b IT-BHU's fate? should it remain IT-BHU,varanasi or it should b renamed as IIT-varanasi?so, this is a complete fiasco of d name game.i think furthermore all d students of IT-BHU will not go by d shakespeare saying "wotz in a name???"....
