Hi
friends, let us begin!
The
ezine begins with a tribute to Lal Bahadur Shastri, I am quite an
admirer of this man with grits, and am pretty sure that he was
murdered.
Farce
in the name of justice by saptarchi:
These are the news items
that make conscientious people without the heart of Mother Teresa
wish human beings are wiped out of earth for good!
Fogline
by Brieuc Martin Onraet: Mr.
Onraet is a great storyteller, and an interesting mytho-sci-fi is in
making I think. The names of the characters at least hint that! What
is inside that lab?
Vikrama
aur betala by Raghunandan Kuppuswamy: Smart
sculptor. Power mostly corrupts so it is smart to stay away from
power-plays for your own sake! Great story Mr. Kuppuswamy!
Gardens
of Sarusammog 2 by Troy David Loy:
Saru meets Korravi! Great piece Mr. Loy, Saru is like selfish giant
of a story I have read as kid. No one enters my garden uninvited!
The
dark made its mark by Dom Collucci:
Wise words. Everything indeed came out of pitch darkness! Great words
of wisdom Mr. Collucci.
Bitter
Pill dose 29 by Bitter Pill: politics 5:
Politicians indeed use media as their court poets in India. Indian
media is thoroughly corrupted, despicably corrupted!
Prophets
of God by Brendan: This is
one hell of a piece of writing! We human beings will certainly either
kill or perform character-assassination if Jesus or Buddha shows up
to save us! Look at those who have tried to warn us against high and
mighty crooks these days- Edward Snowden for example.
The
shearer by Pat Ritters: Well
the jailbird walks out of the jail, the bartender refuses him
entrance, admonished by him he scampers away to his lodging. What
next?
Treats:
five lovely
shots- from Agni’s photography trip!
In the
treats section Lucifer’s liegemen links and short description have
been provided.
Click
goes the shears by Pat Ritter:
short description of links of the book about shearers of Australia,
sounds quite interesting.
Love
of my life by Dom
Collucci-Sounds like a warm, romantic read.
Pikatron
by Troy David Loy sounds like a great reading material with fractals
as added beauty!
SBs’
book in amazon, The heart
beats on – a collection of poetry, sounds good! Will be checking on
them, maybe grab a copy and critique them too!
Sitara
Devi- Her name I have heard
and if I am not wrong watched her performance in TV too! Will have to
check out in YouTube to see if there are any!
A
haunting: Watched quite a
few episodes in TV, they are spooky for sure! Their quality is better
than many horror movies too!
Balraj
Sahni- he is one of my
favorite actors in Hindi movies. He has performed in many black and
white movies, and was a really natural actor for sure!
Youtubia-One
step beyond- Will check
out! Thanks for adding a bit about the story. You forgot to change
the title though, I was surprised a bit but then thankfully the name
was right at the beginning of the post.
Minutes
Together: this month’s
story “You drank my poison” was Karma dishing out the right dish
to the right recipient I guess.
Loved the
Bengali poem and the hindi poem both. Thank you for adding my work in
your ezine Agni.
Sukanya and
Sage Chavan- A story that might have been tragic took a lovely turn,
cute story.
Words-
difference- Agreed, a good camera does magic on photos.
Scaredy
Stick- This type of incidents makes pandemic-time scarier! An
educated [highly educated ones] struts about the entire city’s
crowded places with their infected son, spreading a deadly disease.
The
sketches all through the ezine were pretty! Very colourful and
lovely.
That is it
I guess! See you again next month, and thank you Agni/Sharmishtha for
translating my works!
Yours
sincerely,
Labanya
