Inside Bigg Boss's Asshole
Imagination is important and this makes me wonder about days when I used to write poetry on mermaids and jungle fairies. I never touched upon the apsaras and kinnaras and Gandharvas but one ultimately realises that if you have to think like that one is ultimately facing discrimination from either from inside or outside. My poems about mermaids and jungle fairies might be western but they weren't really meant to be it was just an expression of thinking the world is one and so is art which it essentially is if we excuse the politics but politics is too big to be excused in fact it is the very existence. It is much later I thought of writing Indian mythofantasies though I have always been supporting them reading scarce books about them and purchasing comics about them. You have seen Indian aesthetics in the paintings of Radha and Krishna and in the paintings of Raja Ravi Verma. I have seen them in comics I grew up reading, a lot of them Indian mythofantasies and works of great people like Anant Kushwaha elevating Indian folk tales into fantasies. The Indian reality could have been that, at least for the Indian nerds which the establishment refuses to acknowledge as it refuses to acknowledge any safe space in which people can quietly do their work and follow their interests as it hinders them in executing their kundalis which they have already decided according to their whims though this only applies on middle class and lower and the unprivileged high class people who are not part of the cabal. Now Indian reality is a mix of Indian section of Xvideos and scam calls. I mean when I was young and in college, I was into subcultures, like indie and hipster I followed Hindi and Urdu rock from Pakistan religiously. That got dismantled and all the people who used to follow western subcultures are being either being tortured, murdered or made bankrupt. I find it funny because the establishment is actually following the American playbook and translating American and other western methods of crowd control into colloquial versions and very crudely, the tragedy is that these motherfuckers can't even copy with finesse. The refinement that was present in lower stratas and the folk culture has been deleted, so that they can be exploited for their crudeness which they weren't earlier. You see Bigg Boss that's a foreign concept and it has been Indianised to feed voyeurism and schadenfreude to public benignity or maligancy of them differing from person to person. Bigg Boss is the actual microcosm of this nation. I still refuse to believe that it's Modiji, or only Modiji because of some very substantial reasons. And for me it doesn't really matter because I have no skin in the game as I belong from Purvanchal and my kundali has already been decided, I will be tortured till I die like the majority of people in the region so I kind of make sure that I listen to some good rock music while I approach my fate and if I manage to write something useful, entertaining and aesthetic, even better.
