November goes NoAmber


November goes NoAmber on a lot of fireproof things
but tell him ‘H E     I S      O N    F I R E     B O Y’,
and buoyyy...
he will not even need a lifebuoy to wash the ire out of fire.
He will run to the corner of the road 
and try to brush off the ashes when he has not even burnt yet.

November goes NoAmber on the curly wavy streets of Delhi and still there is no cutdown on the emissions. There is no fire extinguisher for this kind of warming up.
November goes NoAmber and a swarm of traffic lights flirt with him trying to get him to fit in spheres of their waiting.
If this waiting does not make me throw up,
November will definitely. Because he reacts back. He damn well reacts back
and that too with a lot of Amber.

November goes NoAmber on the delhi streets without batting an eyelid at the traffic signals,
calling out to all whooping traffic lights
and saying "give me December and I will give you winter".
I drag him past the traffic lights.
It is then that November goes NoAmber on me, says "there is no waiting for a month that already rests on the axis of a geography I had no hand in preceding".

November will never yellowy well manage alone.
November still got the cheek to tell me how left out he feels when the search party only comes for the warmth in winter. What about the chill. What if the blankets want to send a search party for the chill.
And in that moment, I figured, November makes sense only when it is not speaking NoAmber.

Obviously, I go NoAmber on November
and tell him he still got pretty chill for a color that does not let go sun’s hands.
And in that moment, I swear I saw November raysing ears,
laughing without letting go y from the year.
I don’t know why.
Don’t ask me where did the why go.
This whole year has been about going and not coming back. And if I had had a heart I would have definitely let it come back with a beat for the NoAmber in this November’s search party.

November still says that he aint looking for sunshine,
that he is looking for caution in traffic lights.
No November, you better not go NoAmber now.
