Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose
Or perhaps, nothing more to want
When the world is turning on schedule,

- Is that a ITC Wills cigarette in presumably your fingers?

@ Sheiroo: I see them as the same thing.
@ Ranjan: That’s poetic. Was that referring to the July 26th floods?

Never doubted the association of the picture with the content; I was just asking ‘what’ is the relation?
@N: Thanks for the clarification.
Different Brand, Same Hand. Eh!? Must be Gold Flake then or Classic.
