(Top Inn is an Irani Cafe-cum-eatery in Hyderabad)
Rosewood colored tea
Lands with a thud
The new boy's interpretation
Of my Medium Kadak
------
2 nos. Yellow
3 nos. Red
2 nos. Off-White
All lined up in beer mugs
Rajasthani ethic
Serving juice
To confused Hyderabad
------
In the awe-struck gaze
Of the 8-year old
The resolve to be
A future smoker
------
Bat-wielding boys
Storm in to plunder
The afternoon's water supply
And argue simultaneously
The umpire's decision
------
Meridian School Bus
Cramps the single lane
But everything quietens
And everyone fixes
As she springs out with a smirk
This buxom 8-year old Woman
------
Chennai Masala Dosa
Hampshire Cream Bun
Surati Chaat
Chinese Manchurian
Dining Hall devours
World Kitchen's vomit
------
Daily gym-mates
Reunite with high-fives
Admiring each other's
Maa ke Loudeys
------
Phone rings always
With deadlines and disputes
But I hang in here
At the edge of my seat no. 1
------
Water truck has arrived
The oldest boy orders us
To clear out bikes
Relishing his moment under the sun
------
The rampant Fan
Circulates smoke
As well as Rafi
