Tomorrow isn't fine- poem

  

Tomorrow is a wonderful day, 
Tomorrow will be fine, 
There are so many wonders
Waiting to be revealed, 
All the good times and
Rainbows are yet to come, 
Tomorrow shall be mine. 
Tomorrow, tomorrow, 
God given tomorrow, 
Will put an end to all
My treacherous sorrow. 

Yeh, but....... 
What about the day after? 
The week end, The next month, 
The new year, a decade later?
What if it wouldn't turn out 
Like I want it to? 
May be a nightmare, a blood splatter, 
Insignificant like a mindless chatter. 
Or even catch a flu? 

Is tomorrow ever fine? 
May be, the optimistic halo 
"Happily ever after", 
Is a overrated lie, 
And painfully shallow, 
The ignorant hope, 
We unquestionably muster, 
In reality 
Will leave us flustered. 

May be, 
Every Heart break, 
And love, 
Pain and pleasure, 
Every loss and gain 
Are not evil nor good, 
Rather flavors ushered, 
In proportional measures, 
For life to have a blissful taste, 
And distinct leisures. 

Give me something to boast about- poetry

Give me something to boast about,
Can't you see that's what I want, Something to clear off insecurities,
Walk with head held high, Something to proudly talk about in gettogethers,
Make them gasp,
Something that stops me from looking down every time I meet an eye,
Let them look up,
Something that convinces me there is meaning to all this charade called life,
So that I want to wake up next time,
Something materialistic, something superficial, something shiny, something that shouts hierarchy.
Heck, I will even take moral superiority,
Something that throws spotlight at me.
So my optimistic human side, gains power over the rebellious cynic with the crown called pride.
Let it run over any question unanswerable, unfavorable.
Let pride blind me, let pride spoil me, let pride save me.
Let it cloak me with deluded self importance and self love.
Give me something to boast about.

Vyapam scam- all you need to know

"Vyapam" ( Vyavsayik Pa riksha Mandal), is a autonomous body garnered with the  responsibility of conducting entrance exams in Madhya Pradesh.

The exams are held for admissions in to colleges in the state and recruitment for government jobs.

The Vyapam scam is irregularities in the admission procedures in a number of entrances examinations conducted by the Vyapam.

Undeserving candidates bribe politicians and officials through middlemen to get high ranks.

The scam involved 13 different exams conducted for selection to various colleges and jobs.

Impersonation, Copying, manipulation of records and answer sheets, leaking the answer key were the methods employed.

Though many complaints of foul play have been reported since the mid-1990s, the first FIR was filed only in 2000.

In 2009 when police were tipped off about irregularities in a premedical entrance.

They realized cases were not singular but were part of a organized crime racquet. 

A committee was formed to investigate the crime, which led to imprisonment of 100's by 2011.

On 13 July 2013, Jagdish Sagar the leader of the scam was arrested in Mumbai.

Later the involvement of former MPPEB  (Madhya Pradesh Professional Examination) board chairman Pankaj Trivedi was found.

Along with former BJP minister Laxmikant Sharma 1000's of parents, students and impersonators were arrested.

Questions have also been raised over the involvement of the Madhya Pradesh Governor Ram Naresh Yadav.

Suspicious deaths have further complicated the investigation, since 42 people involved in the scam have died.   

With the scam pointing out the corruption within the highest bodies of the government

It becomes yet another example as to why common people can't trust politicians and officials.
