ek glo! Despite you, Hansie! | The Last Word
https://ajeshthelastword.wordpress.com/2011/11/12/ek-glo-despite-you-hansie
Stories from a Strange Sharma. Despite you, Hansie! Riche Benaud (Image via Wikipedia). There cannot be for me a day better spent than under a weak winter sun, with a pile of sandwiches, a flask of coffee and a bag of easy-peel oranges, watching Test cricket. I saw Hansie Cronje. Lead a side that ground India into the outfield with big centuries from Andrew Hudson and Darryl Cullinan and twin centuries from later-to-be-Indian-coach Gary Kirsten. Before the inspired swing and pace of Lance Klusener. I don...

So! | The Last Word
https://ajeshthelastword.wordpress.com/2012/06/21/so
Stories from a Strange Sharma. Looks like poetry is playing second fiddle to personal reflections. Interesting that. Readership has increased, comments mostly restricted to a closed group on Facebook. And those comments, coming, as they do, from college friends and acquaintances, tend to be not very gushy, which is an understated way of saying they make sure I am kept in my place.

Block! | The Last Word
https://ajeshthelastword.wordpress.com/2012/07/31/block
Stories from a Strange Sharma. It does exist. This thing that makes your heart beat faster, the brain swirl with random asymmetric thoughts is not a romantic notion created by writers. It exists and is real. It makes you useless, apt to watch equestrian events or even synchronized swimming rather than sit down to work. So I took up the challenge and put down this post. And in a tribute to the greatness of Writer’s Block, this post has no real conclusion…. Click to share on Google (Opens in new window).

Memories of a time well wasted! | The Last Word
https://ajeshthelastword.wordpress.com/2012/07/17/memories-of-a-time-well-wasted
Stories from a Strange Sharma. Memories of a time well wasted! This article is scheduled to appear in WeXaverians, the magazine of the alumni of St Xavier’s College, Calcutta). A college friend started a closed group on Facebook which has grown to nearly 200 members including me. And it has been a blast of nostalgia with good and bad humour, puns, repartee and insults traded freely just as they used to be in the canteen. Arunda’s canteen, the cultural nerve centre of Xaves! What a delight…)on a cot...

Normal people worry me: Spring Awaitening!
http://fightstereotypes.blogspot.com/2008/03/spring-awakening.html
Normal people worry me. I can't describe my blog and it doesn't describe me. Tso Moriri, Ladakh. Tuesday, March 11, 2008. However, I digress here. Because this piece isn’t about the play. Or about the people that were a part of the play. I just happened to think of it since I’m so eagerly awaiting the arrival of spring. Coupled with flight cancellations, having to walk to places, not being able to find a cab, wind chill, it can become a real downer. I really DO have a life! But most of all I love spring ...

Goodbye? | The Last Word
https://ajeshthelastword.wordpress.com/2012/07/04/goodbye
Stories from a Strange Sharma. When I think about you. When I dream about you. I feel my heart go still. I feel I’ve had my fill. If I think about you. If I dream about you. I’m wasting my time. Just blowing my mind. So let’s just call it quits. Let’s just say goodbye. What I liked about you. What I thought about you. I was fooling my brain. Wasn’t seeing the pain. The aura around you. My feelings about you. I was feeling oppressed. Had my senses suppressed. So let’s just call it quits. July 4, 2012.
