Are You Carrots?



Hey Mr. Somebody
Are you Carrots?

***

You know I'm aware
of your limited fare
in the knowledge of general
yet chance for big talk
you do not spare

Tell me something Mr.
Are you Carrots?

***

You can tell I know
that your claims grow
in the land of unknown
yet hesitate you not ever
to stoop so low

Tell me something Mr.
Are you Carrots?

***

You feel that I see
and desperately want to flee
from this onslaught of torture
yet without a provocation
you bring on the soliloquy 

I am very sure Mr.
That you are Carrots!

***

You realize my acquaintance 
with your illustrious ignorance
in the uses of intellect 
yet shed light on everything
you will in abundance

Seriously Mr.
Are you Carrots?

***

Now,
Apprehend you must
on my word, you trust
and stop arresting people
with the words you thrust
put in your mind, you just
the words heed, privacy and lust
(okay maybe not lust)

And then Mr.,
You might not be called Carrots.

P.S: The theme came to me while I was peeling and grating carrots the other day and was hapless by how tedious it was. Just like how some people are unbearably tedious. ;)

So, did you like it? Or are you Carrots? :P

P.S.S: This post was brought out with the determined efforts of our very own Writer/Reviewer awesome filled fellow blogger, whose deadlines I shamelessly flouted twice. *looks for a place to hide his face*

  1. Hehahah! :D If you're gonna write such awesomely funny and sarcastic poems, it's totally worth the wait ;)

    I love this one. It is so "Usama's poem" after such a long time! Take a bow :P
    I love the way it makes you laugh, makes you think of someone :P and is yet not even offending. And such a weirdly cute metaphor, to connect a carrot and a phrase and some stoopid person :D ;) Smarty, you.

    Keep Writing! :D
    I know you need prompts and pushes, but then you end up writing something at least, and that turns out perfect because you are Mr. Perfect. :D

    1. Takes a bow(rather late :X :P) Thank you so much for the praise and the confidence imbibing words dudo, I was happy to write this one after such a long time and I hope to right more soon and more frequently :D

  2. I want to start with the P.S. part, dude, you were peeling and grating carrots, this makes me go all aww :P Genuinely!!! No pun intended!! :D

    And this poem is AWESOME!! I'm gonna use this expression now : 'Are you carrots?!' instead of 'Are you Nuts/Mad/Crazy' :P

    Please write more, unlike Ashna, I really think you should be let off the hook for writing after such long periods of vacuum even though you come up with absolutely fantastic pieces!!

    2. Don't let me off hooks by all means, but the curse of the writer's block is quite a scarily culprit mostly. I'll write more Ruya, just don't aww too much :P
      I love to see your comments, just do write them a little more often :P even though I know I completely fail to even read your posts even :X
      Ciao!

  4. Preetika already said what I wanted to- on the carrots peeling part and the fact that I am gonna use this 'are you carrots' instead of nuts/mad/crazy.
    Okay-- so the poem is awesome-- a nice balanced version of sarcasm and fun! I hope you had no one particular in mind while scribbling it down apart from the carrot :P :P or somebody out there is actually carrots?? ;-)

    1. Hey Priyaa, well you never know, do you ;) There could be a lucky person out there who inspired me to write this. Or there might not be.. it's a secret, as I said ;)

      I am glad you enjoyed this one and yes, I look real cute peeling carrots ;)
      Do come back for more, I am gonna be writing more happy stuff :D

      Thanks a lot for the feel-goody comment. God bless!

  6. Even I'm gonna use "Are you Carrots?" from now on :P

    And yeah, hahahaha. I loved, loved, loved the whole idea of using the carrot-ly bored mind in writing a wittingly hilarious poem. Good job! :D
