The Song


Dejection. Despair. Broken heart. Recession. Depression.
The building. The roof. The edge. Tiny figures below.
The radio turning on.  Main jindagi ka saath nibhaata chala gaya’.
The step back. The smile. The cigarette. The puff.
Har fikr ko dhuye me udaata chala gaya.


Author's Note: Inspired by my friend MPS's repeated forays into the 'depressing sort'. This is my first attempt at 55 Fiction.

This was great. Used to listen to this song. Was there a scene where Dev Anand pees into a pond in the song? Well, nevermind- good memories nonetheless.
