Am i afraid of growing old?
Yes. But not as much as I am afraid of being displaced by my own time.

poem in progress
by Rishik Vijayadas Menon

the red eyed hiker
he is the poet in chains
not like he likes her
just needs some muse to abate


his teeth's on fire
from the lies he contains
sincere perjurer
finds that he's nothing to say

irreverential
to the roads and the streets
mounting potential
he'd rather die on his feet

been deceived by a lot of movies lately.





For example Madagascar 2! Here I was thinking that it was a pretty lame cartoon sequel to a lame cartoon movie ive never even watched before.



But in reality, all it actually was, was a dance movie. It was "step up" it was 'Billy Elliot", it was all that. a plain and simple cool dance movie, about following your dreams and doing what you believe in.



Okay, and yeaah, it was fucking hilarious and witty too. Jokes were flying at you every second, there simply wasnt a moment for you to let your guard down and stop thinking. Ridiculous jokes(The Shark skipping across africa), witty jokes ("can it fly?") satirical jokes ("Stop him! he has a pair of scissors and handcream!") jokes refrencing other movies ("Id like to kiss you monkey man") slapstick jokes (the old lady) Shrek-like jokes (The mother lion squishing the glow worm) anticlimatic jokes ("how does he do that!" while Alex is dancing) the list just keeps going on. Every moment, regardless of climax or mood of the story, the jokes keep coming. Yes, was soo fucking worth my 10 bucks. and id like to mail in another 10 bucks to them, just so they feel loved.

Another movie i was deceived by was yes-man. Once again, I was thinking it was a typical jim carrey, funny facial expression, funny unreal magical situation movie.

But its cool, cause it really wasnt that at all. Was really a romantic comedy in many ways.

And it felt really sweet at some points, over and above the ridiculous jim-carrey-stealing-the-show-with-his-voice-and-facial-gymnastics portions. yeaps. was genuinely an overall good show, that wasnt too excessive. Especially loved the part where he tries to get her back and she goes "why dont you just go jump off a bridge".
The transition was priceless, and heart wrenching.
Beautiful directing.
