Caliban


Caliban from 'The Tempest'. I think every other character in the play had been rather unfair to him. One cannot be branded a bad guy just because one looks conventionally bad, is the son of a witch, and possesses a free will (unlike Ariel who didn't know any better than to follow every single order given by Prospero)

The Kabuliwala


A drifter had come to our door a few days ago asking for food and clothes. He reminded me verymuch of the Kabuliwala from Tagore's Story. Maybe I will see him again someday, maybe I wont. I would like to think that he has a home with a wife and a little daughter to go back to. He did not by any means look evil or the kind who'd have drugged kidnapped children in his sack. He looked a bit gloomy and weary though.The cynic in me tells me that it could have been a practiced expression. One that he puts on every time after ringing a doorbell. Maybe its just my defense mechanism getting triggered so as to not let me feel guilty about being unable to do anything remarkably kind for him. But he seemed grateful for what little he received - old clothes and some fruits. As the days pace by, I couldn't help but take some time off to doodle my version of him. Maybe deep down inside me, there still is a hint of guilt!
