[ the new... face?... of cricket. ]



Making Thursdays more bearable. My Hobby: watching the world go mad.

more proof that the BCCI isn't frakking around with IPL. one day, we might be sitting on Sundays stuffing our faces with Lays chips watching UltraCricket ( 12 overs) .. just to see the advert featuring a botoxed-beyond-the-grave SRK saving Lara Dutta from drowning, naked, in a tank of Coca-Cola.

[ all that jazz ]

"Working Feminism" became distorted by lipstick lesbianism, got tangled up with sexual liberation, became only a little about the right to vote, educational equality, non-discrimination in the workplace. It became marred by the numbers of women in the western-educated world who didn't choose to become doctors and scientists and engineers and lawyers, so then we had to find a way to make the stay-at-home mum a feminist too, as well as the Page 3 girl, and the High Class Prostitute, and the crack addict on the corner.

The antichrist for feminists by Ruth Fowler

[ amores ]

II

in the rain-
darkness, the sunset
being sheathed i sit and
think of you

the holy
city which is your face
your little cheeks the streets
of smiles

your eyes half-
thrush
half-angel and your drowsy
lips where float flowers of kiss

and
there is the sweet shy pirouette
your hair
and then

your dancesong
soul. rarely-beloved
a single star is
uttered,and i

(days go by and still i)

think
of you
