Upsets and Underdogs
Kiwi Cricket's Shangri La... "Can still hear the deafening din of the Indian crowd chagrin. Stunned shell shocked silence at mandarins' sins. Yet somehow still so loud Like thunder down under in the proud Land of the long white cloud. Daring to dream of derring do plunder. Upsets’ unctuous umami. Shocks’ sumptuous serendipity. Cast asunder as against the odds. Hallowed Gods' anguished..felled & fallowed. Kiwis vanquished...

ORGANISED CHAOS
Of the created lot, Am the meandering one, A mass of battling red, Am always on a steady diet Ever since the mothers bred. Chemicals galore in profound reacts When devils dare to tread, The flames crack like the daring sun And cells suffer a wreck. Parts are fed with signals released, Castles on the air are built, Images form with colors bright Traces of the...
