The Most Scornful Verses Are Born From The Belly's Of Fantastic Lovers

Love is obnoxious sire,
Squeaky like a flat tyre
Words of mayor
Swish of the air
An effort never admired

REALISATION

For months together now i have been craving to have a pup tail me around my home. i have been dreaming of the barks that would welcome me after an energy sapping day at work. I am a convert who until recently shut her eyes or humm bollywood numbers to pretend cool when a dog neared. Now the sight of a pup excites me and i can't wait to lay me hands on it. So this is something that happened on X'mas last year when i decided i had to let out my imaginary love in my head into something real. This lead me to a south delhi mall (after 2 hours of excruciating wait in the traffic) where i heard pups were up for adoption. Yes adoption it was because I wouldn't be paid the finances for the same by my mum ; who religiously chanted that she would not take it if IT climbed unto the bed with dirty paws ( OCD!! ) or rush to it when nature called.

So i reach the place i see these pups all 'INDIAN BREEDS' (this is important you shall see) chewing onto blankets all cuddled up in their cots. So I pat a few ,fed a few and the love in my heart quadrippled . Since all the ups were stray I wasn't really sure in my mind and came back home empty handed (see) . It wasn't late until late at night when I was warming myself up for bed that i realised that wasn't love loyality and compassion the reason I wanted the little one. To see it chew on my chappals , to cuddle with him, see it lap up milk with its pink little tongue.

So wouldn't a stray suffice all of this. Provide me with love and deserving enough to receive mine. Surely it too will bark me welcome into the home. I am not a full convert i conclude. I just conqured over my fear of dogs. I still don't qualify to be called a dog lover because i realised i am unable to comprehend the warmth they provide stray or well-bred. But realisation is my prize. It definitely set me towards the path , the path of altering our attitudes.
