In the realm of reality

Deep inside I could not blame people
for thinking this way though. But I was
hoping to be discriminated against in a
McDonald's or Wal-Mart so I could sue
the hell out of them. My looks could
have come to my rescue at least once!
But contrary to my expectations, that
never happened.
I had a bizarre feeling of a guiltless
man on the run, waiting to get caught
just to prove his innocence.
We Have Everything

Contrary to my expectations, my ten
years old nephew who was not surprised
to see the slinky I’d brought him as a
souvenir from the United States said,
“We have slinky too. Next time we go
to Bazaar, I’ll show it to you amoo jaan
or as you Americans say dear uncle.
Whatever you find in America we have
it right here in Iran.”

Prisoner

I reside on the highest level of a very tall
building, so tall that I’m too scared to look
down sometimes. And when I look out the
window all I see is thick cloud below and
infinite sky above me.

My quarter has no door to outside world. I
live in a flat with all amenities, an
apartment with only one window. I have no
way of communicating with outside world,
if such thing exists. I’m in a solitary
confinement for life yet I’m very
comfortable. I have no complains.

Reality Show
Reality show is a genre of  television
programming which presents unscripted
dramatic situations and documents actual
events. It covers a wide range of
programming formats, from game or quiz
shows  to surveillance productions. They
portray a modified and highly influenced
form of reality.  Who can make more money
in the shortest time? Who can overcome the
fear of height?  Who can swim faster or can
lose more weight? Who can gorge a bucket
full of disgusting insects?
There are many of such productions on
television generating hefty revenues for the
networks. This new genre is cost effective
and popular, the two features Entertainment
corporations like best.  
People do anything for money specially if it is
on television. There is no limit of what the
show producers can make people do. What
motivates people is insatiable greed. Millions
sign up to enter the competitions, and a few
lucky ones get in and a handful of
participants become rich and famous. That is
a win-win proposition for both parties.

Premonition

Would you like another one?” The man
sitting at the bar offered a drink to the
woman next to him.

“Ah. I don’t know. I’m getting tipsy,”
she said.

“That’s what Friday nights are for.” he
countered with a smirk on his face.

“Are you trying to get me drunk?” Uma
replied in a seductive tone while playing
with the empty glass in her hand.“

I enjoy your company and do anything
to prolong our exciting conversation.”

“Hum. Why am I skeptical of your
intentions then?” she sneered.
