CLVII

After EC officials discovered Rs 2.5 million in her hotel room in Meghalaya

Rs 2.5 million stashed in a Shillong suite

Booked by Alva and her Congress pets

Maybe we're wrong, maybe we just fret

But then, why does money always dog Margaret?

CLVI

On Scarlett Keeling's mysterious death

The dead don't talkA crime is conveniently blocked

But an officer's quiet has a stated price

His depravity, raised to the power of avarice

CLV

On British teenager Scarlette Keeling's suspicious death
A 15-year-old's dead
Washed ashore with a bruised head
Another rape? Another khaki sham?
It's the Goa Police, that needs a post-mortem

CLIV

ON OIL-SEEPAGE INTO WELLS OF MORMUGAO
'If you dont have bread, eat cake'

Saw the France's conscience shake

It's time the State takes stock, dwells

Why has oil replaced water in our wells?

CLXIII

Reading between the lines, one can rarely grasp
While chasing a languid puff of grass
Goa's always played host to a very sorry Governor creed*
But, it's good to see this zeal now, for governors on Speed**!!!

* Barring a couple of glorious exceptions
** Amphetamine sulphate, a high inducing drug

CLXII

Goa presents the only cavity

In Newton's theory of gravity

While, a ripe red apple may still pop

It takes forever for a minister to drop

CLXI

It's ironic, that the Cosa Nostra will meet once more

That's the Mafia which deals in land, not ore.

Who, after almost pillaging Goa, have now been called

To follow the 'natural justice' principle

CLX

Fact is always stranger than fiction
Life allows no retakes, nor scripted diction
As Munnabhai, he charmed us all with his moral sway
As Sanjay, it's the same old story of lies and dismay
