Material World


Musings

Here I was, on the Net, this vast compendium of information. Pages and pages of all the thoughts that passed through minds. Pages of all the information on earth compressed into bit pieces and megabytes. Images of all the pictures that move through our minds. Affixed forever on the white backgrounds of metallic moments. Resting […]

Memories


Musings

Memories. Memories. Memories. All we have. Synapses of cells. Connecting the neurons of what we know with what we don’t know. My memories. My memories can fill a sieve. I sift through the cells and wander through every little path I know and traversed through these years of life. 30 years they say, is too […]

Self


Everyday

I woke up to a sea of mirages,Morning dewed andHappiness slewedThrough the dense foliage of a mindThat knows not what it seeks. A desert of waves,A chasm of moodsThat seek their wayThrough blind wordsThat play their tunesOn music that hears it not. I lost. Miserably. Despairingly.Lost the power of loveLost the laughter of magicLost myself. […]

Beyond


Everyday

Circles of sandpaper trail acrossAll the pieces of life I ownThe yawning gaps ofChurning memoriesLeaving their scars Across the internedRemains of the soul. Thousand forms of duskPart brittle tender husksMellowed in wine of the pastAnd cherished in the seed of hopeThrough the dark jagged riverFlowing green through my mind. A mind that runs its walkOn […]

Movement


Short Stories

It was a small night. Whispers of a moon passed her path. Above, the stars gentle as they were, seemed too far away. She didn’t know why she was walking. Or where. It seemed a world away from the lights of the city she had grown up in. Yet, here she was. The lanterns of […]

Rage


Everyday

Set to carve a waveI chose a sickleThe harsh metal cruel to touchGlinting in the razor sunThe mask eye of wisdom drawn Clasped I the sickleCurvaceous wood embers Slanting against withered skin The wave roseRose to the heights of the mind’s sky The sickle slashed the airSwooped down smiling at the endThe wave faltered trembledSkin […]

Finding Magic


Musings

Is not an illusion. Is not a reality. Is not a tempestous plunge into fantasy. What is Magic? Wandering through London, I thought of this. The noises of the streets blending into a headache. A jetlag that carved a sword through my tiredness. A myriad number of people I cared not to meet and one […]

Just a lift


Short Stories

The elevator door closed with a shut. He stepped inside. Gold rimmed the walls. The carpet was slightly stained. He glanced down, wondering how many people must have walked on it, stepped on it, waited on it. “Like me,” he thought wryly. 39. 38. 37. 36. The doors swung open on 35. For a moment, […]
