And then my eyes fell on the Blue suede shoes. Not many one would notice these days. The shoes were adorning some girl's legs, but stretch as much as i might, shoes was the only thing i could see. An inch here, an inch there but nope. Blue suede shoes. And as i said, on a hot Monday mornings in Bangalore traffic one would do anything to make life look interesting. And so i decided i had to see her, come what may. So a docile, traffic obeying driver, me, suddenly got transformed to a congenital Road Rash expert as soon as the traffic got anarchic again. Gear. Accelerate. And ah, break! Damn the Honda City! Umm...where's the damn auto? There it is! I almost catch up with it and Blue suede shoes are Nike officially now. But green turns yellow turns red. Break? Accelerate?
Throw the rules to the wind, and the world will be your oyster (?).
So i ditch the break and break the signal. But my target remains elusive. Dodging cars, autos cycles and sundry I follow it with as much attention as when I stare at my monitor during coffee breaks. Blank and complete. The chase is relentless and unrelenting. Its not about the girl, the shoes or the adventure in it. Its just about a change, a deviation from the routine. A small and trivial digression in this huge random life. But irony is life's sense of humour. And finally it happens! Blue suede shoes take a right and i am compelled to take a left lest i get imbroiled in one way politics.
Life is strange, random and almost useless. I would never see that girl ever. Maybe she had blue eyes as well. And as long as i am dreaming, maybe she would have smiled seeing me. But, all i would remember is the blue suede shoes, Nike.
Well, its one for the money,
Two for the show,
Three to get ready,
Now go, cat, go.
But dont you step on my blue suede shoes.
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes
