A Chill Pill

What I need is a chill pill is when
You "Reply All" in your email
And I waste my time in the mill
Grinding my brain for no avail

What I need is a chill pill
When you open a stale email
Reply needed ASAP and all
To get your out of office in reply email


What I need is a chill pill
When you come late for the talk
And you have the question of a corpse
Buried deep in time you want to beat to death

What I need is a chill pill
When you call me to ask a pressing question
And I drop and run and be your guide
About life's umpteen traps and tricks
And I see you do the opposite

What I need is a chill pill is when
I see you bring a hoax from the dumpster
In my breakfast tray to chew and ponder
And the civic duty of not to remember

What I need is a chill pill
When you tell me something
That twenty years of my education is nothing
Than a second worth of a pearl  found in searching
On your toilet seat while you time traveling.

What I need is a chill pill when
The accolades showering
For the unscientific skills flowering
Peer reviewed by godmen and politicians
On the magic of organics and excrements

I need a chill pill...

Death

Death
A protest, a celebration or a threat
If you are a politician
A vantage point if you are religious, politician or a lawyer
A non fixable error if you're a driver, nurse, doctor or engineer or a circus performer.
A day job if you are a priest, funeral director, soldier, or executioner.
A loss if you are the kith and kin.
A poem, a piece of work for a writer.
An entry for the clerk, the bank and the taxman.
A journey
For the unknown, not knowing any of the above.

The Day That Changed The World

That single day changed the entire world for ever.
On that day, I was driving to work , listening to radio.
World trade center was hit by planes.
I was thinking that it could be some navigational error.
There was a movie Die Hard where it was depicted how to confuse the landing system.
But that wasn't the case.
My employer's office was targeted by arsonists.
I saw my friends started wearing hijab.
Suddenly a (wrong)religion was attributed to you because of your looks or accent or the clothes your parents wear.
Airline charges went up.
Flights became the interrogation camps.
You started looking suspicious at your fellow passenger, your neighbors.
Your children got bullied.
Your job prospects reduced.
Your freedom in enjoying a nice day at a public park gone.
Stock markets collapsed.
Libertarian views transformed to conservative views
Pseudo patriotism and fascism reemerged in many countries.
Freedom of press deteriorated.
Science became nonissue
Religion decided the politics
World cleaved to multiple self contained lands.
Conspiracy theories and false information proliferated.
Now the patient can't trust the doctor or nurse of different appearance.
Food one eats can now be the cause of mob violence.
What you wear on your head can get you killed.
You lose your birthplace because of your religion.
You don't remember the day when few planes hit some building in a faraway land.
You don't know why your life changed.
Life changed.
