intentionally and act like
it’s the end of the world.
Pinch yourself on the
left thigh and announce
how strong you are.
Eat 10 green chilies
at once and write about
how salty the tears are.
Sit beneath a banyan tree
for a day and announce you
are enlightened.
Thereafter, declare to
your family that you're
renouncing the world-
and eat like a glutton, like
you would be an ascetic
the next day.
Then, leave your home
at midnight. Walk away
barefoot and by noon-
when you feel hungry,
ask for alms, and if they don’t
offer any, come back to
your cozy bed.
Look in the eyes of the
faces in the house that don’t
have any remorse.
Smile at them and say
thank you for watching,
like you were a side
character of a TV serial-
And then, this is important.
get to your room.
turn the blinds on-
Incognito, jerk off.
Get under the blanket
and thereafter cry.
