9/11 induced Brotherhood- Best before.......

Published in The New Yorker November 12, 2001 artist:Bruce Eric Kaplan

9/11 was huge for USA and the world. Befitting 21st century, it also was TVgenic. It created a lot of shock and awe.

Americans felt insecure and sought safety. They made more love in weeks following that than ever.

Outside bedrooms, it created a sense of brotherhood in that otherwise deeply divided nation - precisely for two months!

We in India go through similar roller-coaster rides with our feelings. We need to remember teachings of our poet-saints when best-before date is reached.

We have large home, lots of stuff, number of rooms,

We never use some of them, here is one......er....our child,

We never use him either!

How many times I remember I have met the house, its rooms, its toilets, its cars, its a/c's, its sofas, its proud re-sale sq-ft rate, its balconies but not adequately its people.

One word on chracters of BEK. They seem to be synchronised... Moving in a pattern.... Slightly leaning.
