I quite like my breakfast news. ‘Good morning world, how’re you doing?’ Before, a cup of ‘Ragi’ and a sumptuous breakfast was pretty good for digestion, till I saw ‘Burn a Quran Day’ headlined on the newspaper. That day there was ‘upama’ for breakfast. I didn’t like the ‘upama’, too bland. Neither did I like that particular piece of news. It didn’t go well with my digestive system. Forget ‘well’, it just didn’t go into my digestive system. Instead, it got sucked into my ‘nuisance value compartment’ —- situated right next to my spleen. Well, you might wonder about this compartment, and question anatomy in general to which I would say, ‘don’t, its an upgrade and its customized.

Coming back to this particular news item number. I think it qualifies to fall under the ‘I’m a virgin, said Britney Spears’ and, ‘Mandela? Who Mandela? Isn’t he dead?’ spoken by the great George W Bush in a press conference, category. Speaking of George W Bush, shouldn’t Pastor Terry Jones have thought of organizing burn a ‘Bush’ day? I mean God revealed himself to Moses through a burning bush, who knows he would have come up with some kind of mind blowing, history making revelations to Pastor Terry Jones too, especially about the 9/11 disaster. The newspaper termed him as a ‘radical Christian’. I was wondering if they have a different Bible, with a few empty pages where radicals like Pastor Terry Jones could add their own holy verses and commandments. What is the difference between him and the other self proclaimed holy extremists coming up with nothing but ‘holy shit’? He should know that it is not the love for God, but the love for one’s own greed and power and reasons for existence, that such inhumane and cheap events have taken place throughout history. Poor God has always been the scapegoat. No wonder he doesn’t reveal himself to ‘Saints and Aints’ like he used to in ancient days.

‘God, do you see what’s happening down below,
it aint ‘happenin’ anymore,
pastor jones wants to burn pages
few imams want to hold the world in cages
it takes ages for love to grow old
but just a moment for hate to be bold
he blames him, him blames he
in the process, screwed get we
and you.? you’re the context of disaster
they say you’re the one they’re running after
God, please tell them that you are cool
without guns and ‘bums’ and fools
if not for anyone, then just for me
for my breakfast and my cup of tea
and for that little time where I spend
a moment with you my eternal friend

I come with from a Christian family, and I became radical, when I ended the quest for him, because hey, He just happens to live within me.

So much so for freedom of expression.
