One and the zero

IKAI AUR SHOONYA
THE ONE AND ZERO


MAIN DHHOND REHA THA EK IKAAI
HAAN WOHI IKAI
JISKE PICHHE SHOONYA  BHI KHADE HON
TO SANKHYA DEHAI , SAIKARDA, YA LAAKH
KUCHH BHI HO SAKAT  HAI
SHHONYON KE DHER MEIN BADI MUSHKIL SE MILI WOH IKAI
SABSE PICHHE
KHADI IKAAI KE KHAANE MEIN
MAINE IKAAI SE KAHA KI BHAI
AGRIM PANKTI MEIN AAO
AUR NAZDEEK KHADE SHOONYON KO BHI SARTHAK BANAO
IKAAI THAHERI SI SIMTI SI BOLI
NAHIN MAIN YEHI THEEK HOON
KYON!!
KYONKI,
SHOONYON NE AB BAANDH LI HAI JAMAAT
AUR  DHAKEL KAR  KHARDA KAR DIYA HAI
MUJHE IKAAI KE KHAANE MEIN
KYON,
KYA WE SAARTHAK NAHIN HONA CHAHATE
NAHIN CHAHATE HAIN JINDAGI MEIN KUCH MULYA
IKAI BOLI
NAHIN
SAARTHAK JINDAGI UNHE BOJHIL MEHASOOS HONE LAGI HAI
AUR NIRARTHAK JINDAGI KO HI
HI JEEN MAN LIYA HAI




I was searching for a ONE
Yes The same one
Behind which even if you merely add zeroes
The number could add upto anything viz., thousand, million
Yes after a great deal of search ,
I did locate the ONE standing in the last row
Standing in the square of unit
I amazed asked him
Why She was standing there
Requested him to come and stand in the front row
And Give meaning to zeroes standing near by
She whispered in fear
No she was alright there
Why was my question
She said, The zeroes of the world have formed a union
And have pushed me in this last square
But do they not want to become meaningful
and valuable
NO
For them the meaningful life has become burdensome
And they have accepted meaningless existence
As the only livable life
