Conformity is a major building block of the giant superstructure of Normal. Normal keeps the engines of the human structures of society, culture and politics, oiled and running. Those who stick their necks out and decide to create their own path and walk or even better, sprint on it, are not ‘normal’. On the other hand, conformity is the way to go for the most because it ensures survival. The jagged edges of exceptional do not bruise their inner child, who is scared as it is. Fear ensures conformity and courage challenges it. Courage leads to extreme successes and failures and many times failures are the stepping stones for success and vice- versa. Success is like walking a rope above the ocean of conformity. This is so because, success thrives on exceptions and challenges. Success needs its own path. Do you still want to be normal?

I
I am so I
isn’t that what troubles you?
if I become you
won’t you still be troubled?
What we have
What we already have
is the last stop
in the trip of insanity
that we embarked at some point of time
as collectives of rot and greed
striving for more
struggling for more
creating more rot and greed
Din
In the constant clamour
and the din,
the voices of reason are stifled.
The helpless voices on the periphery
can’t even reach
the windows of their homes.
Double – faced
Double-faced predators
roam the land
unscathed in their skin
relentless in their pursuits
