ஆங்கில மோகம்

@sure4an
தன்னைவிட வயதில் மூத்த பெண்களை
தமிழில் அம்மா, அக்கா என விளிக்கும் போது
பெண்களுக்கு இருந்த பாதுகாப்பு
ஆங்கில மோகத்தில் ஆன்டி என அழைக்கத் துவங்கியபின் இல்லை.

போராட்ட களம்

இலவசங்களும் ஏமாற்றங்களுமே 
நம்மை எப்போதும் ஆளுகின்றன...
போராட்ட களத்தில் நெருப்பும் 
தோட்டாக்களுமே நம்மை அடக்குகின்றன...

நான் அருந்தும் தேநீர் மணமா சுவையாக இருந்தால் மட்டும் போதாது...
குடிக்கும் கோப்பை வெள்ளியாக இருக்க வேண்டும் என்றாள் எப்படி?

நாம் வாழும் இந்த வாழ்க்கை வாழ்வதற்கே...
உனக்கு கிடைத்ததே சிறந்ததென எண்ணி
மன அழுத்தம் போக்கி, மன நிறைவோட வாழ பழகிக்கொள்...

மற்றவர்களோடு உன்னை ஒப்பிடுவது - உனக்கு
பெருமை சேர்க்காது...!!!
நீ பேசுகின்ற வார்தைகளும்...

அவன் பிழைக்க சாதியை கையில் எடுப்பான்,,

#நன்றாக சிந்தியுங்கள்,,,,
ஊர் எல்லையை தான்டினால் இங்கு யாரும், யாரையும் என்ன நீ சாதி என்று கேட்கபோவதில்லை, கேட்க போவதும் இல்லை,,,
ஷேர் ஆட்டோ ஆரம்பித்து, விமானம் வரை, சாதி என்பது அழிந்து விட்ட ஓன்று.
ஒருசில சில இடங்களில் மட்டுமே ஊர் எல்லைவரை அது தொடர்கிறது,,,
இது போன்ற ஒரு சில எச்சைகள்,,,, பிச்சை காசுக்காக அனைவரிடத்திலும்,, அதை மீண்டும் பரப்பும் வேலையை செய்கின்றனர்,,,
