Kuch Saste, Kuch Mahnge Bhaav

YOU CAN’T CAST, MOULD, 3-D PRINT OR PRICE-TAG EMOTIONS:



Times are not far, when we can perhaps cast, mould or 3-D print all physical objects under the Sun, howsoever complex they may be. But can you ever artificially reproduce emotions? Perhaps not. One need a bleeding heart and a fertile mind to germinate emotions. One may perhaps need a ‘N-D printer’, with ‘N’ tending towards infinity to reproduce emotions, artificially. Emotions are simply put, just emotions. You should neither categorise them nor put a price-tag on them. We still do not hesitate to associate emotions with terms like cheap, shallow, empty, hollow, intense, pricey, beautiful, natural, artificial etc.



If the emotions come in so many hues and colours, why not create a beautiful collage with them? Dress up the emotions with words, put some bridal make-up, put on some shiny bright ornaments and voila; a beautiful poem is born.



‘Kuch Saste, Kuch Mahnge, Bhaav’ is a collage of similar emotions of an IITian Engineer. The poems are more of a collection of mixed, interwoven emotions, experiences, experiments, thoughts, imagination, contents and concepts than decorated, grammatically-impeccable, language-skills-demonstrative poetry. Read these poems with an open mind, as if sipping a well-matured wine, to soak in the emotions and relish the poetic thoughts.
