i long for a spark, anything to inspire/ to drown out the whir of the system/ but the lines are shot, i try again, and again
i long for a spark, anything to inspire to drown out the whir of the system but the lines are shot, i try again, and again
endless waves of loneliness wash through me why, i cannot quite fathom the little one plays around me Her pretty pictures fill up the online album she’s my joy, my sun, my sanity without her it gets cold and random i long for a connection to my soul to cut through the volume, through the vacuum why do i feel so alone, how can i stop Get back up and into the rhythm Everyday life, work and routine it’s not boring, the dull and the humdrum i long for a spark, anything to inspire to drown out the whir of the system but the lines are shot, i try again, and again but none is the outcome. Feeling empty, does it ever stop Life flits before me through a broken prism i hope i find a raft to hold me still I don’t want to slip into the chasm.

UP Boards Topper Prachi Nigam was trolled on social media for her facial hair; our obsession with appearance is harsh on young minds.
Prachi Nigam’s photo has been doing the rounds on social media for the right reasons. Well, scratch that- I wish the above statement were true. This 15-year-old girl should ideally be revelling in her spectacular achievement of scoring a whopping 98.05% and topping her tenth-grade boards. But oddly enough, along with her marks, it’s something else that garners more attention – her facial hair.
While the trolls are driving themselves giddy by mocking this girl who hasn’t even completed her school yet, the ones who are taking her side are going one step ahead – they are sharing her photoshopped pictures, sans the facial hair, looking nothing less than a celebrity with captions saying – “Prachi Nigam, ten years later”.
Doctors have already diagnosed her with PCOD in their comments, based on photographic evidence. While we have names for people shamed for their weight – body shaming, for their skin colour- racism, for their age- age shaming, for being a female- sexism, this category of shaming where one faces criticism for their appearance has no name. With that, it also has zero shame attached to it.
