Ganesh Chaturthi

They brought Ganpati to the neighborhood
It was, by far, the largest one they could.
The people came,
Chanted his name
Then danced to songs from Bollywood.

Ragrets

As Lady M said, "Out, damned spot"
Time has moved on; I have not.
Years down the line
I insist I am fine.
One day, the lie will get me caught.


ps- The title of this post is from my favorite joke in the movie, 'We're the millers'. From http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=no+ragrets&defid=7652005 :

Scotty P's shitty tattoo in the movie We're The Millers.

Scotty P- "This tat here is my credo: No Ragrets"

David- " You have no ragrets? Not even a single letter?

Scotty P- "No Way Not Me"
