Dosa- A Memoir

 Dosa- National Geographic(be like) It was a fateful day, the sun illuminating the dining room through its tinted windows upon the firm wooden table stapled to the ground. I was expecting a casual meal, one without much flare, but one that would do the job right in order to ensure satisfaction and fuel me for the day. What I got was a thin, flat, tortilla shaped chunk of bread with a sizzling cheese dulcet to my ears as it sank into the meal coined as a special South Indian dish. Ten year old me could not think of what to conceive of this queer meal, so instead of pondering it any longer, I bent down and took a parsley test bite. What followed was a spear, tinted with a glossy white pigment and inscribed with markings, paving the way for the future, past, and present all to collide into a universal harmony. What followed was the spark of a revolution, a meal where the slightest mention of its name would flashback the caliber and have me jumping like a subsonic monkey with an overdose o

The Road Not Taken- By Aryan Mukherjee

 Hello loyal readers! Here we have my spinoff of the famous poem, The Road Not Taken  by Robert Frost. Hope you enjoy! The Road Not Taken Eons past after just a blink,  Life a train, moving ‘fore I can think, Recourses in grasp one inch too far, No ensorcells from my grimoire, To help me tackle the bombardment, Can’t make up the loss from my retardment, Can’t take a device, and move back afar, Can’t change what's been done, that road’s paved with tar, Can’t sit here and sulk, I’ve made too much progress, Yet my fate is brittle, I won’t sit here and acquiesce The road not taken is a plastic packet, Drifting abroad, trying to ruin the planet, If only I was to pick it up, My life would rise from the bottom up, But instead I choose to let it drift by, It’s crunches cacophonous, its intent to decry, The future of my children and the kids of theirs, My whole life is ruined all from the wrong affairs, Opportunity is gold, a treasure I was blind too, And now I want it back, but I must wait

Joe Biden is Curtailing Racism at an Enigmatic Rate- Or is he?

  A Long Awaited Reparation? Or An Ostentatious Presentation? “ Of the 115 justices who have served on the bench since 1789, 108 — roughly 94 percent — have been white men. Zero percent have been Black women.” (New York Times). During his campaign speech, President Joe Biden swore to usher in a black woman as Supreme Court nominee. This affirmative action was made to allay racial prejudice and biases towards those of a darker pigment and opposing gender, but has stirred people into disarray, not with disagreeance to choosing a black woman, but with consternation on whether this move was only executed for political gain and for choosing someone by the color of their skin rather than the content of their character.         President Biden took an oath that had thrilled most and flabbergasted some. As Alexander Goldstein from an editorial writing to the New York Times scripted, “Since President Biden boxed himself in with his pledge to nominate a Black woman to the Supreme Court, he has n
