where did love exist
before you tuned in ?
Author: shekhar
Suddenly, Unexpectedly…
I seek
that,
which was not
supposed to be
I seek
that,
which had not
occurred to me
courage
come
help me
down the mountain
where, why, what, whom ?
feeling anxious,
am flying to LA tonight,
always anxious when I go there
Paani
Paani is a film about a city of 20 million inhabitants which runs dry of water. The water wars have begun between those that still have water and those that do not. Water has now become a weapon of political, social and economic exploitation.
love
by the time
it began,
it had already
ended
but then
in the end,
it had just
begun..
The two of me
I am jealous
and greedy
and angry
and I hurt
Do I love you ?
no one act separated from another
no one time separated from another
no one space separated from another
no one individual separated from another
I live here ?
I live here ?
So I ask my friends
where does your home end ?
how do you define your space
in which you live
Paani
Today another dream was rekindled. Paani. A film that has lived in my consciousness for almost 5 years, when I watched 50 women and children standing in the hot sun in Mumbai. Each carrying a bucket waiting for a tap to start dripping with water.
