A Haiku Screenplay | THE FORBIDDEN MARRIAGE

THE FORBIDDEN MARRIAGE

* This Haiku Screenplay was written as separate Haikus inspired by different things and situations and then complied into one screenplay depicting another story altogether, for the deconstructed version of the Haikus with their inspirations, look at the end of the post* 


This screenplay is about the forbidden meeting of two lovers and their killing in the name of honour. 

*************************************************

Eyes on the horizon, feet in the sun 

two people sit on the floor

Until the mountains move


A kiss, a caress, a pluck 

Two lovers depart from the eden

The Eden's crecent rests in a jar 


The black bird flutters with the leaves 

The footsteps trample the wings 

 It dies.


Devoid of virtue, devoid of sin

No face to shout 

The only wailing comes from the flower of life. 


A double edged sword

The brown rust makes it kinder 

To not shed scarlet blood 


A white sun blazes the table white

The brown chimney huffs 

A bead of sweat falls in the orange juice. 


The rusted waiting of a shiny silver 

Is better than 

A scarlet meet of two lovers 


Tears in the eyes, 

Fire in the nose 

The onions sizzle and then burn.


A gliding voyage in the pink dessert

A foot dipped too deep 

The red flood unleashes 


Thumping feet and bobbing heads

The plastic strings scratch in circles 

Repetition is death

Haiku on a long lost broken cassette 


Thumping feet and bobbing heads

The plastic strings scratch in circles 

Repetition is death


Haikus on a discarded and rusted Blade 


1. A gliding voyage in the pink dessert

A foot dipped too deep 

The red flood unleashes 


2. The rusted waiting of a shiny silver 

Is better than 

A scarlet meet of two lovers


3. A double edged sword

The brown rust makes it kinder 

To not shed scarlet blood


Haiku on a line I read from some book 


Eyes on the horizon, feet in the sun 

two people sit on the floor

Until the mountains move


Haiku on one of Tarkovsky's polaroid 


A kiss, a caress, a pluck 

Two lovers depart from the eden

The Eden's crecent rests in a jar 


A white sun blazes the table white

The brown chimney huffs 

A bead of sweat falls in the orange juice. 


Tears in the eyes, 

Fire in the nose

The onions sizzle and then burn


Haiku on observation of a shadow


The black bird flutters with the leaves 

The footsteps trample the wings 

 It dies.


Haiku inspired by a riddle, the haiku is the answer and depicts the idea of abortion. 


Devoid of virtue, devoid of sin

No face to shout 

The only wailing comes from the flower of life.

Everything is about sex

Everything is about sex. When I say this people automatically assume that every experience or every ex change is dirty in my head; however, what I mean by sexual here is that every encounter or ex change is sexual in nature and has some sexual vibrations or energies at work. Even if it is with  your family, your brother, sister, mother, father, cousins etc.  Sexuality in humans is something that emerges and sprouts regardless of however much it is hidden  or suppressed, in a country like India, sex and sexuality is a taboo, this makes the sexual expression  for people here very difficult and sometimes even non-existent. But it is one thing that comes to  surface either directly or indirectly. When men and women are segregated so strictly, the only  physical proximity you experience with the opposite gender is through family, leading to incestuous  feelings and acts. But just like Oedipus or electra complex this is a stage one needs to pass th...

Women and Violence

Violence and women's association brings in certain power dynamics, the violent woman on screen is not a symbol of Power, freedom, free will or strength but a symbol and facilitator of the masochist and bdsm fantasies of men.  When the idea of the violent women surpasses the fantasies and overcomes the idea by shaping itself to be something bigger than the idea of bondage and masochism, the next burden put into it is of the villain, the femme fatale. Women with violent tendencies or violent reactions ( note it doesn't matter what the initial action is in terms with the reaction) are either something to lust for or something that disrupts the intricate plans or perfect life of the hero with her seduction and plotting.  The women in more modern films are now given some agency as to in relation with violence but it is still a by-product of feelings of vengeance, self defence or revenge. A woman's violent tendencies are nothing but a reaction to a man's violence.  Please kno...

Poetic Realism: From Objective Facts to Moral Truth

Poetic Realism: From Objective Facts to Moral Truth Jean Renoir says - to let oneself absorbed by everything around you, life itself is an infinitely more rewarding spectacle than all the inventions of the mind.  Poetic Realism is a term that describes a style of cinema that emerged in France during the 1930s. It refers to a type of film that presents a poetic interpretation of reality, with an emphasis on emotional and psychological truths rather than objective facts. Poetic Realism is characterized by its use of atmospheric visuals, lyrical dialogue, and a focus on the inner lives of its characters. This essay will explore the origins of Poetic Realism, its key features, and its enduring legacy. Poetic Realism emerged in the aftermath of World War I and the economic and social turmoil that followed. Many French filmmakers were disillusioned with the traditional Hollywood-style cinema, which they saw as formulaic and shallow. They sought to create a new type of film that would ref...
