I claimed that I could convert
Gold from penniless earth,
And people gathered around to see
How I made a fool of me.
But that was then, when they called me a quack
These past few years I have made a comeback.
But one thing I have learned from history
is to give a wide berth to chemistry.
Grateful thanks to the creator of this medium
In front of which people deal with their tedium.
I am just another slot in a 24 hour.
But I make something outta nothing, that is my power.
A non event becomes breaking news
Cos I get politicians to express their views.
With a serious look into the camera I stare
And inform the gullible of things out there.
Its so easy, its like shopping at the mall.
Being an alchemist, from nothing I create things big or small.
And there is so much from which to choose
It all depends on my imagination, if I’ve scored or find a muse.
Like any other, my trade has many fine tricks
Technology and cunning make a fine mix
I am able to selectively choose
Audio and video recordings to fit my idea of news
You may have heard, I go by many names
Barkha, Rajdeep, Prannoy are but one and the same
I can put down or raise those who tiredly plod
Am I an alchemist? – nay I am God!
