On Behalf of a Shoe
2:40:00 AM
Last night soon as I made up my mind to get some sleep,
having given a break to regulars and irregular’s
in life; upon closing my eyes having slumped myself on the bed, that idling part
of me that needed cozy comfort zones was listening to Tinie Tempah going on as
:
“Sexy senorita, I feel your aura
Jump out that new motor
Get in my flying saucer
I'll make you call me daddy
Even though you ain't my daughter
Baby I ain't talking books
When I say that I can take you across the borders
I'm young and free, I'm London G
I'm tongue in cheek
So baby give me some time to drink
Slow and steady for me
Go on like a jezzy for me
And say the words soon as you're ready for me”.
Thence I remember sinking to a deep sleep until I heard
everything else coming to a stand-still and a hard knock banging on my left
year.
Jeez! it was a shoe I had never seen earlier in my house
that had knocked me off the sleep. My mouth went dry and I was gaping at the
shoe that was ragged, dusty and wearing
on its top the crushed remaining’s of a redden rose.
I was like “What the heck! a shoe?!... this is gotta be the
weirdness at its worst”. To my further
astonishment the shoe began talking.
Le shoe: “Know
me comrade?”
Le me: “Nope I don’t
and nor would I wanna know of such a shoe
I just wanna sleep just get the…”
Le shoe : “Now
hang on there! Easy Mr. Bee!”
Le me to
moi self: “What holy shit is
this?! A shoe I’ve never known talks to me
in the name I like being called”
Le
shoe: (As if read my mind) “Aye comrade I know ye better than ye think
and I’m trying to be civil as much as I could muster with ye”
Le me: “Come on now! Whatever the goddamn
hallucination you are, just don’t talk
to me in that awkward manner.. just be gone! Why me?! Go for some other
weird guy over here!”
Le shoe: “Alright I will try to be normal with you… and you
are the chosen one. So now let me talk”
Le me: “NOOO! How
come?! Harry Potter is the ‘Chosen one’
not dear meee!”
Le shoe: “Now
shut the…..”
Le me: “Okay… okay calm down whatever now just talk
whatever you wanna talk and get vanished to wherever you came from!”
Le shoe: “It is fair for you to wear my counterparts who couldn’t voice for
themselves and even you dare to pitilessly kick them into dark corners when
you’re done with your show-ups outdoors. But
you feel so prickly and hence
command us to be vanished only when one of us dare to approach you and knock
some sense in to you, is it?”
Le me: “Okay cool down
now! Now what’s the deal what have I done….”
Le shoe: “I
told you clearly that’s my turn to talk and yours is to listen and only to LISTEN!
And you know what? I’ve also
seen you and your friends update such fancy statuses on that time-killing junk
yard called Facebook saying ‘Don't judge
me till you walk a mile in my shoes or live a day in my life.’. How dare you!
Just how dare you relate poor us into your messes?! Now that’s where you humans
have gotten it all wrong! That is you folks who choose the fitting shoes to wear and not that any
shoe is coming your way begging you to
wear us right?
So even with life those are your
choices which make you who you are and not that anything is forcing you to make
those things your only options in life. Hence it is cause of your own
incapability that you are accusing every other thing throughout your
unfulfilled lifespans. Satisfaction
indeed is a rare thing… for instance look at those girls in your world of
humans! They pick one design of shoes
and come home admiring it. And Right on the very first night they wear
it to a party they see other better designs
gracing other ladies’ feet and drool about them having forgotten the beauty they beheld in their own shoes at
the time of purchase. That’s called cunt
genealogy among my circles you know?
And yeah… that cunt
genealogy isn’t something that’s only
related to those capricious and
vain creatures in your world! That peril
is embedded in the genitals of you
so-called industrious, progressive, hardworking males as well. Now don’t you
reprimand Your minister of transport to kiss his ass good bye simply cause two
trains collided and caused a loss of
over hundred million rupees to the
Railway authorities. And dare you put
the Korean prime minister who resigned over a wrecked ferry side by side in this case as the
example? How unfair that is?! Why don’t
your lopsided brains think more
sensibly? Why defy your own glory to another sloppy resignation of a sloppy man in a sloppy country that you
took no notice till recent times?
Come on let’s not cheat your own
conscience, you wanted to make a mayday slogan out of that as well right?
Bloody opportunists y’all are! And the
funniest thing of all is the mayday in which a world-wide rebel of the proletariat is commemorated,
some crackpots are naming it as the saddest
day of the year for the married women cause their men stay home the
whole day! Alright I’m freaking you out
more and more with such nonsensical-sounding rye jokes. Yeah exactly I just wanna piss you off
as much as possible before I get down to the real business.
Uh I remember you asking ‘What’s
the deal’ earlier right? Yeah I figure
everything that every person talks is a ‘DEAL’ for you huh? Well you liberal capitalist morons wake up with
deals, pee with deals, eat with deals, get laid with deals, walk with deals, talk with deals and probably
you folks are even sleeping with deals and maybe that’s why just as you are
half asleep listening to me you are throwing me the question ‘What’s the deal?’
I’m here to talk no deal Mister! I’m here to knock some sense into your head so
that the next morning just as you woke up you must switch on that cursed laptop
of yours and get started typing it all down on my behalf for your blog fans,
Facebook buddies and all sorts of potentially sensible creatures within your
reach.
Now here is the real deal for
you! Think not of the mayday as a velvet that’s so red with that thick liquid which sprung from the
deepest tributaries of poverty you could have a hearty laugh at. Think not
of it as the future that is destined to lay redden as a carpet for your after-comers also to
tread with their iron shoes of bureaucracy
just as it was customary all
throughout their ancestry that have
hitherto been glorified in history.
Think not of it as another gimmick or a
mimicry of an age-old celebration of a victorious working class that’s facing the
adulteration which is consequent to the overarching strategies of networked
devolution instigated by the masterminds of globalization. And think of it simply as the remembrance of
sacrifices which have been made to create
a better tomorrow for all of you who were then the saplings shaded by the ailing brethren of redness that belonged in a past which
was redder and thicker than the blood
running in your vessels. Think of
it as the cuts of shoes that were bestowed upon your precursors for the sins
they committed by falsely setting up layers and layers in their gregarious
existence that’s known as the society. Those cuts of shoes were intended to
shape the feet for the future of that massive body of civilization to stand
straight upon them as a nation which
would turn to be as much sovereign as it could be. But behold! Has it happened so far? Has it
the capitalism and the vicious circle of poverty in which you all have been
encircled become the only reason for
such a chaos? This must be the ideal hour to turn the headlights on towards the
oblivion of future that’s beyond yet
another war zone sullied with redness of
ethnic, religious or any other form of discriminative forces! So be it and thus I may conclude my long damning ode to
the redness of the mayday.”
I just couldn’t
believe my ears. What the heck was I listening to? While I was pondering
this bewilderment, I heard statics and sounds of distortion and the shoe
disappeared gradually from my view as if it was melting into the thin air. Then
I began to feel my presence in my own world. On my bed listening to Metallica
singing to me “For whom the bell tolls” in low volume.
