Samsa and this Lousy Write-up

Charchit Upreti

Aah! This is going to be a typical Charchit write-up, and if you’ve graced yourself with something similar before; aye! on to the next one. I tend to overdo a lot of things — my consistency is so appalling, right? But someone told me not everyone’s looking for some thrill or some short-lived tension; some find tranquillity in these frequent, peaceful, consoling conversations. I don’t know if that someone still follows my works or not, uhh — consistency is cute. Well, okay. Another someone asked me, “How come you’ve so much energy? Do you really enjoy dealing with all these things?” So before I could answer, that someone vanished. What did I do after that? Wrote a song about it. Well, apparently my songs contain a lot of profanity, and they are too much “RAP” — someone told me this. August 2023. I made ‘Samsa in Love’ so this “someone” could enjoy this Dance-type beat and feel-good lyrics with a ‘Pop’ flow!

Did she like it?

Oh! So you already presumed it was a she. Well, the answer lies in the fact I wrote ‘New Girl’ full of vulgarity and obscene remarks. It wasn’t that profane, though! You got your answer?

Looks like a lot of someone’s didn’t treat you right.

Naa. It’s just that my exuberance didn’t go with their non-committal energy. I loved them when they were in their head and I was out of my mind. And one shouldn’t be schmaltzy over these trivial issues. Since you are my new someone I would hate to see any lugubrious expressions on your face. Remember what I told you? The defeat is in the thinking.

When did you tell me that?

Oh, probably someone in 2018.

And one more thing. Who’s Samsa?

The one who took everything right on his chin — small or big.
