I want to Fly Away

I want to fly away, right away
Now, not soon


I want, by my own, I find my own
Not be told, not here on


I want to taste the sky
Roam the night
Walk Paris, the cobbled streets
Sip the wine, Golden, Sparkling


I want to dance the night
Prance in gowns
Burst balloons


Flirt around
Mesmerise
Capture that time
Freeze my dream


Toss the coing
Flip it all
Let go 
And still go on

What is it about Dhoni?

I can't stop raving about Dhoni in the new Pepsi ad. With the handle bar moustache and buzz cut, as he gyrates to 'gatak gatak' (and looks Oh, so deadly handsome!), Raina, Harbhajan, and whoever else is there, become non entities. It is the ultimate 'yennada, rascala?' Chennai's Super King look and the eyes are only for D! What were the others doing in the ad? It probably has to do with Pepsi's Men in Blue campaign. But this ain't the only one in which Dhoni has more than just him in the ad and where without him the frame is incomplete. It is not without reason. It is the Dhoni persona. He is part of the crowd, just as much as he is a legion by himself. "If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, If you can walk with Kings and not lose the common touch..."-Kipling I pause to think. When did he become so statuesquely? When did he emerge to outshine  greats like Sachin without ever trampling upon their space? Since when did he begin to...
