ART AS WELL AS THE ARTIST !



So sometime back, I signed in for a creative writing workshop and our mentor, Ms. Rachna , gave us some creative activities every now and then.
One of which was - Forced connections, in which any two unrelated nouns are given and we need to weave a creative Content around it.
In this activity, I got two terms -
Headphones and black bag.

So here is the creative Content I came up with.

                                   HE
And are you talking about the one with blue headphones around his neck?
And that black bag over his back?
Oh! But why does that define him, I wonder!
Yes because He dances to the beats given out by those blue headphones.
And that black bag carries his sense of identity, his ghungroo .
But it's our society's mindset which makes him wander around aimlessly.
They say the blue headphones give you the rhythm to dance but why do you need that stuff of the black bag!?
Who said that talent was gender specific??
Who said that just because it was not a mainstream talent, it should not be pursued?
I wish wandering takes him to the destination where he is loved for what he can do!!
Oh! yes, I am talking about the one with blue headphones around his neck and that
Black bag over his back!!

The theme targeted in the above content is quite unconventional but I genuinely feel the plight of these artists who are a storehouse of talent and art but are yet to receive their due recognition with complete pride and honor.
Worship every art but don't forget to appreciate the source too!
Worship every art but don't forget to appreciate the artist too!
