Words can create magic and I want to get lost in them for some part of each day.

The coils of Oil.

Navigating Oil 
is a tricky Business .
Like the Pakora ,
At right temperatures ,
You may puff up with self -importance 
And feel like a hot-shot for a while.
But a bit of squeezing or freezing 
and all you get is 
a blob of sad and soggy distasteful mess.
For thats what is left 
of the real you -
minus the oil .

  5. Yes. 
    Pakora can be bad both ways, puffed up or deflated :-)
    Oil spoils it :-)
