As a song that was pleasantly stuck in my head for the last month goes, "It's been awhile". But before anyone starts harping (unlikely, since judging by the 2 comments in this entire blog, this is more of a tete-a-tete between me and ... myself) I have been busy as the previous post has tried to suggest. I was swamped all through November and December with a whole lot of paper work and the first three months of this year I was busy with exams that don't really test much but you have to give a crap about anyway. And thus after spending all of April procrastinating this moment till after a certain something happened (something because of which I have been procrastinating every other thing I need to do), I said to myself, ah, screw it, and here I am. (That certain something hasn't happened yet, and I will mention it only if it does)
All the non-creative, clerical, and rote bally-hoo that I've had to endure over the past half-year seemed to have killed whatever pseudo-writing abilities I had, and until half an hour ago, I hadn't written a complete poem in a non-competitive, non-academic context since October! All in all, I'm happy that I have managed to write something and happy that this blog gets to celebrate a second resurrection. Hopefully it's last.
I can't guarantee how regularly I will be updating this blog or whether my creative juice will continue to flow and not get sipped in the bud (!) Till then, if you're intensely jobless, make yourselves comfortable reading the last two poems I wrote. One in October, one about thirty minutes ago.
Later.
