Pondering of Batman

           
 Batman perched himself on one of the gargoyle on an old museum building. The night was dark befitting the dark knight.  To his amazement the night was of no crime and no bat-light signal in the sky. It seemed that Gotham at last is at peace. Silhouette of Arkham Asylum was visible and for no reason it made Batman shudder and he felt that Arkham is living and breathing malevolent creature.
As an vigilante, Batman met many good / evil heroes  and evil/good villains. His long list of foes includes the psychopaths of extreme degree: Poison ivy, Joker, Penguin, Riddler, bane et al.

It rarely happens that our caped-crusader, ponders about life and philosophy. But today was a different night or to say night of all the nights.

Batman on Gargoyle 

His thought moved around from one instance to other in just a fraction of second, each thought overlapping the other. He was muddled into confusion just by sheer intensity and rapidness of his thoughts.

Gotham city is skeletal , like the decayed remains of great beast;  Batman caught himself saying. City’s soul is grim, creating maniacs as the likes of Joker and Harley Quinn. Am I a crime fighter without a cause or just a victim of the Gotham’s brutality?- Thought Batman.

Is there any naïve promise he is making to himself or Gotham denizens;  that light will pervade the darkness or consonance will smoothen out the dissonance,  well if that’s the case I’m making the pseudo –promises, this time Batman was whispering his thoughts and he could hear it, making the words echo in his ears with terrible horrific effects.  Batman fought many wars but this one is eventually an intense tussle deep inside his brain cells and that’s hard to shrug off. Now at this point of time our mighty hero is filled with fear skinning his own palms on a premise of creating a wrong notion for Gotham people. Nothing can even come an inch closer  to engage and coax the people into false hopes of making everything better.


Scarecrow from his vantage-point felt ecstatic after a careful watch over Batman. At last it seems that he is victorious and his enemy is on his knee, after all it’s all about brain-game and the internal fears are the stuffs, which breaks even the strongest of mankind.

THE LAST BULLET

Target photo -     Assassin’s phone flashed the message and picture, Prepared to hunt the victim; he readied himself, Carried the gun to shoot and machete to cut the prey, On mission to earn livelihood, Best killer; as he was known among his benefactors, Always elusive and anonymous to his hirers, Makes a deal and always asks motive to kill, Killing was his game to fame, Stalked the gullible to fetch right time to shoot, Got the chance at deserted street to take down the prey, Fired the gun and bullets pierced the ill-fated man’s body, Blood spilling from head to toe, Last bullet still in gun’s barrel, Murderous hand holding the gun, Paced near the body; knelt before the body and wept, Gun pointed by him on his forehead and last bullet smashed his brain, Assassin just killed his brother and followed the path of self-annihilation, Murderer's brother conspired to kill him, As killer's phone  dropped near his idle bloody body , Targe...

Mughal Emperor Akbar

Mughal Empire ruled the subcontinent from 1526 to the beginning of the British Raj in 1858.Babur's (1st mughal emperor in India) victory  at panipat in the year 1526 initiated Mughal raj in India.Well this post is not about Mughal history.This post is about Akbar-most sophisticated and successful Mughal Emperor.There are many firsts under his rule; equal respect to different religions, against casteism and most importantly- Akbar not only tolerated religions other than Islam, he encouraged interfaith discussion and debate. After listening to many religious scholars from the prominent religions of his empire (i.e., Islam, Hinduism, Zoroastrianism, and, to a lesser extent Jainism, Christianity and Judaism) he decided that no one faith was entirely and exclusively true; he developed a syncretic religion which he called Din-i Ilahi, "the Divine Faith" and encouraged his subjects to follow it. It combined elements primarily from Islam and Hinduism, but also from Zor...

JOB-LESS APPLE,WILL TIM BE ABLE TO COOK RIGHT RECIPY FOR APPLE?

Apple’s rise as a superb & innovative company in recent times is nothing short of to be called as awesome.From personal computers to other widely accepted products ,Apple’s journey is incredible.Years ago there was nothing as i’s (phone,pad,pod) but steve’s vision turned it into a reality and made the “i” products   everyone’s favorite and subject of envy for its competitors ,who thought   Apple is going to be rotten.Microsoft tried to imitate the success of ipod with its product ZUNE(I am sure many of us even don’t know that it existed),but failed to capture the attention of consumers. Its market capitalization puts it just ahead or just behind the longtime No. 1, Exxon-Mobil. Apple’s journey at a helm is not without dents,7 of its products can easily be tagged as failed in marketplace - 1)Apple III (1981) Successor to the hugely popular Apple II is focused on business users and of course the price is also adjusted. Unfortunately, the hardware is not reliable 2)L...
