पिछले रविवार को Haaye-PL पर
निबंध लिखने का सौभाग्य प्राप्त हुआ।
हज़ार कोशिशें कीं कुछ सुंदर लिखने की,
पर लाख बुराइयों के जंजाल में व्याप्त हुआ।

गुटखा-ज़र्दा-तंबाकू वाले न सही,
इस बार जुए-सट्टेबाज़ों का बोल-बाला है।
हर बॉल पे अब लगती है लाखों की बोली,
टीवी बंद करिए महोदय, अब apps पर सारा घोटाला है।

चाहे बॉल फूटे या माथा,
Ad लगना तो स्वाभाविक है।
माइक पर बैठा हर commentator,
ज्ञानी नहीं, प्रचारक है।

और भी खेल हैं जहां में क्रिकेट के अलावा,
कभी इनसे भी दिल लगाकर देखो।
पोकर, रम्मी, वित्तीय जोखिम हैं पेश-ए-खिदमत में,
कभी इनकी भी लत लगाकर देखो।

बस और नहीं लिखा जा रहा,
ना शब्द हैं, ना समय पर्याप्त है।
अपने-अपने कामों पे लग जाओ यारों,
हमारी तरफ से निबंध समाप्त है।

I'm on day #8 of my A to Z Blogging Challenge 2025 campaign. Today's poem doesn't directly talk about the work of any IG personality as such, but the opening line is inspired by the signature style of one of my favourite content creators, Anurag Minus Verma.
Anurag is a multidisciplinary artist, author, and filmmaker, who also runs a well-known socio-political podcast under the name AMV. His films have been screened at several international festivals. In his avatar as an author, he has written for several reputed publications such as The Print, Newslaundry, and The Wire. Some of his articles have featured in the Indian Express, Scroll, The Hindu, Mid Day, and Vice World. He has also penned a children's book named “Moon Pizza”. His upcoming book on internet culture it set to be published by Bloomsbury in 2025.

He is also known for his hilarious and often thought-provoking reels/video content, which are in the form of essays. These are delivered in his signature deadpan tone, and almost always begins with "Pichle ravivaar ko XYZ pe nibandh likhne ka saubhagya praapt hua". His essay on McDonalds has more than 5 million views!
You can check out the video below to understand his deadpan delivery style and the quality of his content. I bet you will laugh your heart out!

Do visit his Insta page, you will not regret it! Show him some love, and if you can, please also let him know how you found him. :)
Hope you liked this poem. Please leave your comments/feedback.

That was quite an eye-opening poem about the harsh realities of Haaye-PL. I have a WhatsApp group with my friends, and some of them message in the same tone as Ashish when sharing about their outings. Now I understand the context. You express yourself brilliantly in both English and Hindi.
ReplyDeleteWaah huzoor. Love the sarcasm 😄
ReplyDeleteBadi mazedaar kavita likhi hai aapne, mera bhi yahi manna hai ki IPL dekhne mein bahut samay vyarth hota hai aur cricket ke alawa bhi anya kayi khel hain jinhein itna mahatva dena chahiye.
