kyun…aakhir kyun…


Jaante ho donston….
kal Raat mai apne aap se...
ek sala puchhti rahi…
aakhir tune apne aap se...
aisa kyun kiya…
kyun tune apne aap ko…
dhokha diya…
kyun tune apne aap pe…
viswas kiya…
kyun…aakhir kyun…
mai kuch na bol saki…
bolne ko kuch tha hi nahi…
haan maine apne aap ko..
dhokha diya…
haan maine apne aap ko…
paresan kiya….
haan…haan..maine aisa kiya…
karti bhi to kya karti..
kuch samjh hi nahi aaya…
bas karti chali gai..
apne wade aur apne kasmo ko..
bhulati chali gai…
jo maine apne aap se kiya tha…
bas ek sawal aap se ….
aisa kya karun….
jo wapas wahi din aa jaaye
kya karun jo sab thik ho jaaye..
kya karun….aakhi kya karun?????

Dhanushkodi - at land's end

Barely 20 km from the town of Rameswaram in Tamil Nadu, Dhanushkodi gets its name from Dhanush (bow) and Kodi (end). The name alludes to an anecdote in the Ramayana, where Lord Rama broke the bridge constructed by his army of monkeys between the mainland and the island of Lanka with a stroke of his bow. Barely 50 yards long, Dhanushkodi is the sole terrestrial border between India and Sri Lanka. It was inhabited until 1964, when a terrible cyclone wrecked the village and swept a passenger train into the sea. Though Dhanushkodi today is a ghost town, it is still visited by pilgrims. Yahoo! reader J MADHU RANTHAKAN presents a photographic travelogue of a journey to land’s end.
