"Arrey rey, what are you saying....there still is THE ITCH"
Ok, ok, lemmi start again...
Well, there's always this itch.
"This is derogatory, how can you say that to an ITCH?"
Grrr...The itch is here, like it has always been
"Now that's slightly acceptable.."
What do you mean 'slightly acceptable'? Do you want me to write an entire 'itch-charit-manas'?
"Wouldn't be bad..."
Can't I ever write in peace......the various voices ask for verification from Vaani...
The many voices in the head - one wants to send an email, another wants to write a letter, the third one tops a list as she stands by the tree and wants to send hawa ko sms...
What on earth is it with these people who have single point agendas in life? What about other agendas, would they feel left out? Haven't you ever felt that when you rub lotion on your right arm, the left one feels so 'un-lotioned'? What's the poor thing's fault? People have these quirks that they will do things a certain way only. What's with following a pattern? Imagine being a left arm? Always 'lotioned' second, never been allowed to feel food in the thali? Never allowed to offer the hawan samagri during a hawan?
"The left hand is impure, you twit!"
But who said that??????
I have this thing against people who have this thing against certain body parts.
For instance, what's wrong with feet? Aren't they a part of your own body, the same flesh and blood. Similarly, what's wrong with nosey-goo (every child can tell you the taste isn't that bad :-) ), potty and susu. Really, what's wrong with all this?
"The voice wiggles her nose."
This can go on and on...and finally land in a ghitch of an argument when the voice moves east and Vaani goes west...
"Oh-ho, wait, why shall I go east, you go there, I'll go west. I like west."
Well...what did I tell ya!
GHITCH!

groan!! if i was itch-a-marani like bheeshma, this would be my moment. and incidentally, don't you soap your left hand/arm first?
I alternate between the two. Keep them both happy. Don't want my arms to fight with each other. Besides, it'll not be a very pleasant sight to see them 'up in arms'!!!
Interesting. I love abstractions, complexities and absurdities because the world really doesn't make much sense.
It is perhaps not humanly possible to grasp even the tiniest fragment of reality, in its entire and intrinsic form.
That makes, certain biases not only useful but necessary for social sanity.
A few years ago it use to irk me.
Now I find it absurd and hence enjoy the very perfect imperfections that human beings manifest in their daily social circus routine.
You are a film-maker, right?
Ever thought about venturing something utterly abstract and magnificent and vividly absurd?
