Num3ers


It was once said that music and math can alone be 2 cosmic languages.
Music I know but to relate math to history is easy too..

Numbers. They are what make the world go round.

The are what etch events in your memory.

The time on the clock when you’ve been waiting for someone to turn up at Kins.
The phone number you have been aching to call at Tata International.
The number of ex girlfriends who were silly and complicated.

The number of times you’ve met before you fell in love
The number of cakes you cut on a single birthday party at Sams.
The number of room mates at the flat in Indore.
2 - The second letter of the band whose song became your anthem “With or without you”

The number of tequila and rum mixes before you passed out at Sayaji
The number of steps someone had to climb to get you home safe.
The number of times you were reminded of this incident.

1 jump is all it took for it to happen
2- the number of vertebrae in your back which went haywire post that
3 job changes looking for your dreams


A1/11 – Your piece of heaven away from the world.
12 Lord Palace Orchard –Your own slice of paradise.

45 days- Little angel Max Morrison’s age
45 x infinity – The number of poops he brought along with him

6 – the ideal figure salary
6 – the number of times you’d fight each day
But most of all -
6 the number of years gone by.

Thank you for everything.

Should I .. Should I not?

I have often told you stories
About the way I lived the life of a drifter
Waiting for the day
When Id take your hand
And sing you songs
Then maybe you would say
Come lay with me love me
And I would surely stay

But I feel Im growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill goin round
I guess Ill always be
A soldier of fortune

Many times Ive been a traveller
I looked for something new
In days of old
When nights were cold
I wandered without you
But those days I thought my eyes
Had seen you standing near
Though blindness is confusing
It shows that youre not here

Now I feel Im growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
