my blue box

my cupboard was turning into a cubist nightmare... i needed more space!



one day, walking down the road, i saw this stack of boxes just as a ray of sun slanted down upon them



inside the shop were many little gems



so i paid 1400 rupees to buy mr. tarzan star





with a secret unicorn inside for extra luck



some turquoise paint, which for some strange reason looks blue in all these pictures. turquoise can be a shy color.



i got paint on the railway budget



and on rohit bal's heart attack (hope he's doing well)



and then i was done!



here's a random picture of the buddha on my (now entirely different shade of) blue box

i've been writing more around/about/for my dinky pictures than anything else these days
have always enjoyed the interplay of words and visuals
and for some reason always found words flow easier with a visual starting point.
so instead of fighting it or analyzing it or trying ambitious doomed experiments, i started a silly blog a while ago to record the silly pictures i take with my cell phone cam like all of the rest of us
but maybe the words aren't all gone
scrolling through the image titles it struck me
there might be a poem hidden in this seemingly random presence of words
