Humorous story. The super salesman the super executive mesmerized by his junior. Enchantress! Wished to be with her. His bad luck! Squanders his golden chance when he got it. How? Read the story.

In India, recently we had so many 'honor killings' where unfortunate lovers who dared to defy met a bitter end. We have many castes and number of religions. Inter-caste and inter-religion marriages are still considered a taboo. These unfortunate lovers are often sacrificed on the altar of this 'honor'. This poem is in remembrance of these 'LOVERS'. This poem is also a protest against the taming of a thing, natural as love. THE KILLING and MAIMING SHOULD END.

For how long can you tolerate an injustice. A woman takes the law in her hand and punishes her tormentor. This is a poetic crime drama.

This is a real life incident witnessed by the poet on a railway platform. The angst, the pain, the helplessness of a girl shows in this poem.

This story is all about human failings and achievements. How the crafty ones manipulate and use the simple people for their benefit.
