A pottie year

Today is a special day. 3 potties turned 1.

By that I mean we turned a year old. Of course, somewhere along that year, 3 potties also turned into, just, one pottie.

3 potties - the result of a drunken late-night orgy of thoughts and feelings, of desires and dreams, the plain stupidity and tomfoolery. Aptly named too. And it turns one today and I can’t help feeling nostalgic. The good old times when expression wore a new cloak. The excitement of it all!

3 potties has been a place to get away to. A place where you can run up to and shout out loud or sit with your head on your knees and whisper. Ripples of thought resonating with yours. Strands of feelings caressing you. Strange emotions given wings. If this is the only way I can touch you, so be it.

It’s time to thank the audience. It’s been a fun first year – thank you.

To the other potties – wherever you are and whatever you are doing – just remember this: you were a pottie once, and a pottie you’ll always be.

Goodbye

There are wounds that heal if left alone,
Wish I had known.
It was a selfish sport with a deadly sword.
You lay bare and let me prod.

I have to run now from the gory scene,
Leaving the job half done.
Lest I decapitate you, as a favour,
And put you out of your pain.

Sometimes you get used to doing wrong,
Till it bothers you no more.
Trampling over sunny hearts, their wishes,
Their trust so pure.

Humans have a conscience, they say,
Which speaks in hours of quiet.
Showing right and wrong, it leads you on
A path of true merit.

But I am an animal, a selfish one,
A horny billy-goat.
Conscience left me long ago,
With a very sore throat.

It’s goodbye for now, Let me leave,
So you see another day.
If ever you meet this bastard again,
Slit his throat, right away!

Funny Notice Boards

Having come across this “Funny Notice Boards” forward from a friend, I am reminded of a joke shared by Mr. Navyug Mohnot, CEO of QAI, during the recent Outsourcing Exchange at Suntec City, Singapore:

A notice board in one of the fenced IT/BPO parks read thus -

PRIVATE PROPERTY.
TRESPASSERS WILL BE RECRUITED.
