A piece of thought for “Light Reading” doesn’t fetch money even at the shop of “Raddiwalla” but still this style is alive and widely read. I have tried to come up with some exoteric reasons which could put some “weight” on “light writing”. One advantage might be that it doesn’t enlighten you but delight you. Where a serious (or heavy) piece has some subject (i.e. topic) and objectives the light piece has subjects and objects just for making a complete sentence even if they don’t make a complete sense . If Heavy piece has “gravity”, light piece has “luminosity”. If a heavy piece is the outcome of constipated thought spreading the smell of intellectual shit, a light piece is the outcome of asphyxiated thought casting the spell of moronic bliss. If you have read so far and intend to do so further I must say it will add “another fea(the)r in your c(r)ap.” The structure of this piece will be iconoclastic where no sentence has any obligation to be the harbinger of the next sentence. So be prepared for chaos created by bathos. I love to play with words. Even words play with each other and sometimes indulge in foreplay; otherwise how you will explain the birth of portmanteau words. It’s their way to “enter-course”. Many of the times I have heard people say “I am doing nothing” and I ask them if it’s “nothing” how can you “do” that. At best you can do “Knowthing” i.e. you are doing something which you know what, but don’t know why? With the same absurdity I question people who say “I am passing time”. I ask them, YOU can’t pass the time; it will pass on its own. At best you can do “pasting time” i.e. watching the time pass-by from present to past. I also don’t understand why same people who say our education system has failed put the onus on us to pass. If it’s failed education then passing grades are passing graves so why one should study; but they argue “to get into the professional world you have to kill yourself and deeper the graves higher the grades.” The word bathos means anti-climax and I think this “Light piece” should end on this note, abruptly, suddenly, giving relief to the readers. But before I end you must know this style of writing is created by none other than Jesus Christ, remember: Let there be “light”. Close
