Ani bhi do yaaron

Heard something around the ports, or what’s being ported in?

Ani naam hai mera, suna to hoga. It cannot be you haven’t. It shouldn’t be you haven’t.

Ani naam hai mera, suna to hoga. It cannot be you haven’t. It shouldn’t be you haven’t. Anon

The name’s Ani. You know the rest, of course. If you don’t, you may have no business being here, so go figure out first. You won’t need to go far, I promise you. Just say “The name’s Ani” out loud and some near you will tell you who. Make sure you get the right one. And then there’s Ani and there’s Ani and they both have fuller names. Basically, truth to tell, there’s a few of us where Ani comes from; you’ve got to get the real one, not the doppelganger. We might look alike. We might sound alike. But don’t get me wrong and be not deluded, we are chalk and we are cheese, and it’s all down to you what you get.

I am the Ani you want to hear about. I am the Ani you want to watch out for. I am the happening Ani. I am the Ani making things. And very often I am also the Ani unmaking things. Which is why I am tellin’ you: I am the Ani you need to look out for. Ani naam hai mera, suna to hoga. It cannot be you haven’t. It shouldn’t be you haven’t. Checked your wallet lately? It’s also where I hover. I help clean up, that sort of thing if you know what I mean.

Let’s see. What have we got here? Stocks? Shares? Picked any up? Think. Then think Ani, that would likely be the Ani who’s me.

Eaten lately? Cooked stuff? From your kitchen? Been in your kitchen lately? Checked out the labels? Particularly on oily sorts of things? Or even non-oily sorts of things? Get the hint? Hear an echo?

Been somewhere else lately? I mean travelled? Gone away? By road? Or by air? Been on a highway? Been in an airport? Looked around a tarmac? Seen names on an airplane? Get the hint? Hear an echo?

Been breeding healthy habits? An applea-day sort of thing? Or been eating farm fresh stuff? Just asking; maybe that reminds you of something. No? Your poor luck. More may be on its way.

Imported stuff recently? Through the sea, if I may? Even ordinary things, nothing alarming, not going anywhere near contraband, but had a port experience recently? Heard something around the ports, or what’s being ported in?

Switched a fan on yet this season? Or an air conditioner? Wondered where the power was coming from? Wonder where a thing and everything’s coming from? Wonder what may happen when any or all of that may stop coming? Boom!

I have this

And I have that

But beware what you may miss

Should I fall flat.
