A rat and a bat had a one night stand.
Both of them forgot about it...
why?
Rat gayi bat gayi.

Max Babi, my guru, like Tukaram has a weakness - he barely records his prolific output of poetry. Tukaram is immortal because of Santaji Jagnade who collected his works; this is my attempt to get as much of Max's stuff (he sends it on SMS) in one place.

Be a lamp, a lifeboat, a ladder. Help someone's soul heal. Walk out of your house like a shepherd.

Santa complaining about wife's cooking: When I go home, I don't ask my wife ki kya banaya but kya ban jayega!
Banta: When I got married and complained to my in-laws, they said give it two or three months! I asked: For what? Will she improve? They said: No you will get used to her cooking :-p
Patience is not much about waiting, but it is about how one behaves while waiting.

Tucked behind a dozen old trees, are two wooden benches that time forgot. Cinders quietly burn, with dead leaves and twigs, occasional whiffs teasing my nasal buds with pure artistry, shoring up my mind's resolve till expelled by a blasting sneeze. Vague memories of a musical hangover, show up and fade away.
