Sack Saturdays. Strike it off the calender. Delete it from all records. I don’t remember a happy Saturday in my life. Think Saturday and I can only think of one old day that I came home from school to find life in ruins. Think Saturday and I can only think of a friend saying “I […]
It’s funny the thoughts that race through your mind when you are driving a bike through a seething crazed jungle of human traffic on wheels. Even as you are hemmed in at all angles by boorish people who apparently all have to reach their destination in the most suicidal form possible, you start thinking of […]
There were no horns, no mask, not even a faint rippling memory of a blood-stain. My devil was just an unpretentious fellow, always lounging by the corner. Every day, when I passed him by, I would see him smile. And I would think to myself, “don’t you dare come to me today.” Just leave me […]
I woke up this morning tasting life in my mind. Feelings, emotions, thoughts all compressed into one moment. 24 hours of these moments. Intense expression. Distance suppression. It seemed like I had floated away, and all that was left of me was free to wander. And see. And think. And feel. In visceral clarity. I […]

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. […]
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 […]
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 […]
