Thus the Madame spake...

She said that she has been very sick of late.

" The climate is not suiting me aye! It looks like a conspiracy by the Weather Gods to foully affect my already delicate constitution! My blood pressure varies between 200 - 44, yet I tend to all the duties given to me. But look at you all! Instead of nursing me back to my health, you are questioning the very nature of my sickness! You mean to say I am a fake? A fraud! Acting sick? Yes I did have Drama as one of my subjects in the school where I studied, but I never believe in doing or appreciating any cheap drama! Anyways the main thing is that you all are insolent scums, ungrateful beings! After the Revolution of Evolution that I have brought over in your lives, you should be obliged for life and say 'Yes' to whatever I say! Theek hai!"

We hung our heads in shame. We did not know what to ask now, or whether to ask anything anymore. We did not know what to believe and whom to believe. Certainly we did not want to believe in the doubts that were slowly creeping into our heads. Is she lying or is she not? No we can't even let that question come into our retarded minds! After all she says that she cares about us, only her way of showing concern is little different and way too genius for our uncultured minds to understand!

Suddenly from somewhere a shaky voice asks, "But Madame, it is we who are sick, don't have job or money to pay for our treatment, literally dying!"

"Oh your sickness! It is such a trivial issue! Out of sheer laziness! Listen to classical music and keep on doing some hard work and you will be fine! Now don't you bother me anymore. Let me go to the garden and paint some tree.."

And thus the Madame spake....

Bubble Wrap

Wrapped up in another time,
Another space,
Splintered into two unequal halves
Life goes on in one,
While in another, time stands still..

Afraid to think, afraid to feel
It shies away from any other time
It's clock had got stuck,
Can run no more.

Words seem more unwarranted
In this world of Silence
Mosses have taken over
Whatever was left to be said and done.
