Bengaluru Roads
A monument of potholes
Neither gold bar
Nor in them you can find tar
To lay them, they say we spend crores
But they crumble due to droppings of a few crows
Rain, Rain come any day
But don't wash our roads away
We don't want roads of Beverly hill
At least, not ones, which resemble a landfill.
Schools
Every kid needs education
Else how will schools charge donation
Schools charge high fees parents say
Along with Munni, parents get educated in doing projects, schools replay.
To teach sonny all the alphabet
Parents become school's puppet
Sometimes founders day, many a times this or that day
Through their noses, parents have to pay
Fees which put to shame sleaze
Kids who say Amma instead of Mummy, pay fine, please
Schools call themselves international
Just because their website is operational
Parents made it despite studying in normal schools.
What makes them sleep outside convent schools?
Is it an inferiority complex?
Or has education become complex.
The Journalist
He screams on behalf of the nation
I wonder who gave him the sanction
Is it news or noise hour
Nobody gets to speak during his yappy hour
As unbiased as the slope uphill
Logic matched only by a cycle downhill
Top of the TRP they show
Only because I don't switch off such bow, bow
I HAD A SNEEZE
I had a sneeze
Lasted long enough to scare my missez
Ordered me to go to a GP
Who first checked my BP
Neither, high nor low
At 40 plus, he wondered how
Due to the AC, I did shiver
He decided to check my liver
Said the report `Cactus Chutney' he can devour
The Doc was not yet done with my money
I laughed though it was not funny
Thus, started a cough
He said, after a laugh, it means your lungs are not good enough
Report came for the x-ray
His lungs are happy and gay
Next, he wanted to do a biopsy
And find why my skin is dark
I told my dog can bite off your chopsy
With and without a bark
I went to find reason for a virulent sneeze
The doctor with his bills was planning to take one of my kidneys
Getting Married
Amma said it's time you got married
Enough for you have I curried
I replied if cooking is the bother
Let me learn to handle the cooker
Fed up of you late night weekend
Only a shrewd girl can bring this to an end
If opening the door is the reason for this karaoke
50 Rupees, 50 Rupees, I reasoned, costs a duplicate key
There should be somebody to take care of you when old
Before that, she will demand from me a lot of gold
Mom used her trump card
Before I close my eyes, want to see your wedding card
For 15 years, I have been married.
Not hen-pecked but hen kicked.
