the monster

She dreamed the devil again that day. Its big fire spitting tongue curling around her waist.


It was more fiercful on the first day which was about a month ago. These days it seemed to fancy her. Its claws were like those of the lobsters, the big ones. The monster clawed on her arms, but its face showed a different emotion today. It didn’t want to hurt her . she felt it was saying “ there is no other way darling, I want to feel you, I need to know you, im sorry”.. Its grip around her waist loosened. It was coming towards her face.. the heat was unbearable and she awoke screaming , sweating..
The whole day she thought only about the monster, maybe it was not as cruel as she thought, maybe it didn’t intend to hurt her, maybe once she kisses it , it may turn into a prince.
She went to sleep hoping for the dream to return. That was unusual she thought. She was in love with the monster. The same visuals returned. But tonite she waited for its tongue to approach her face. She was determined to sleep through the unbearable heat.

The next day they found her dead covered in her sweat and blood.

Fashion or no fashion!!!

In one of my friend’s blog I saw this particular tag. It was nothing much attractive but after reading it, first I laughed out loudly and then felt pity on myself.


The tag contained a list of fashion items, must-havs for women and men. I didn’t care to go through the list for men as the women’s list got me exhausted and panting!!

The following was the list:

1. Little Black Dress (small things come in big packages. I cant afford the ‘little black dress’. No doubt I would look gorgeous in it)

2. Black Flats (I have that, the cheapest of them all)

3. Gold Hoop Earrings (it’s the eleventh commandment for a malayali,not just an earring but to own a whole gold mine)

4. Mac Waterproof Mascara .(I had to ask my colleague to understand what exactly is a mascara, since they wrote MAC, I thought they meant an apple PC)

5. A Black Clutch ( I have that , bought from chor bazaar for 100rs)

6. Sling Bag ( I have a sanjhi from my grandfather, does that count as a sling bag?)

7. Gucci /Hermes-Berkin/Chanel/Prada Bag (Gucci, chanel and prada, they are like my team lead, good at a distance but cant afford to have them near)

8. Light-Colored Cotton Saree ( my mothers wardrobe is open for me)

9. Summer Scarf ( ya ya I have that one)

10. Bright Colored Umbrella ( actually too bright, yellow)

11. A Red/Purple/Blue Handbag ( why doesn’t black count here)

12. Over-Sized T-Shirt ( too bad, I thought they were out-of-fashion and gave it to my maid)

13. Pencil Skirt (have pencil as well as a skirt)

14. Solid Wash Jeans (every beggar in the street has one )

15. Sexy Black/Red Stilettos (black, yahoooo)

16. Turquoise Stone Bangles (why should it be turquoise?, I have gold)

17. Ipod ( since everyone has one, I thought not to buy it )

18. Platform Shoes (what in the hell are those? The ones you wear only in railway stations?)

19. Sexy Swimsuit ( as a matter of fact I have a swimsuit which covers the entire body except the eyes, if that counts as sexy, then yes)

20. Toe Ring ( will definetly have one soon)

21. Tattoo ( that one is a long time wish, but in a confusion as to whose name shall I tattoo :-/)

22. Hot-Pants (do they warm these in ovens?)

23. Kajal (It’s a shame that I don’t have one)

24. Banarsee/Kanjivaram Saree (I have one)

25. White Salwar Kameez ( I have pleanty of those)

26. Classic Leather Belt ( I have a purple one)

27. Chanel/Hugo Boss/Dior/Ysl Perfume ( I use a humble dove deo)

28. Pearl Necklace ( not yet)

29. Body-Piercing ( my ears are pierced luckily!)

30. Platinum Band/Ring ( I have one)

So I turn out to be a fashion disaster!
