Breath Toxics!

(Inspired by my true incident of today. Not reel, it's real!)

(aaachoooo...) It was 8 PM, and my kinetic bumped the speed-braker. 'Oh! That was tough.', I heard the inner me. "Smog here and smog there, Oh! It was Smog everywhere." Yeah! That's the by-product of your Go green, go clean Diwali, the eco-friendly Diwali and soooo on blah! blah!! blah!!! that many of you made beforehand. But all the needles turned their course I guess, ha, it's eerie that, we, humans, cannot control! Yes, we can't, we can't control our pangs for hunger, greed for ill-breed and our cat and dog race for breadwinning. Day in and day out we lie, to ourselves, "We are the change the nation wants to see. Good Night. Let's start tomorrow (insert optimism)." And there shone the bright sun next day, your brain triggers you with stimulus of your yesternight's pinky-promise. But, after littering half-a-spoon unused fruits, we try to consolidate ourselves (that too is obviously reel or faking real). Oh! What did I do, ohk, its just half-a-spoon no probs, drive calm. And it goes on and on and on to be an integrity of your daily curricula vitae. That too is toxic! It's just not breathing toxic, here it turns out to be consuming toxics too!! And how do you know, that you're the one trapped in it? Lemme tell you, 'coz I know, yeah! I'm the one who was trapped in it. Drive a mile (on a two-wheeler) and revert back home to find yourself a husk of dust; with eyes and eyelids which one can barely open while driving at this noon, surprise you by being covered with blackness and dust; your forehead which you can easily sweep with your half dusting cloth; your mouth and lips which make you feel like you're eating dust, drinking dust and licking dust. Is the explanation haunting in itself? Of course, it'd be; why won't it be? .....and that's still not over yet, with a treat that you'll get the entire week or in some adversely affected areas even a month, I greet you all a 'careful, clean breath-ed good night.'
