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 […]
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, […]
A myriad number of emotions carve through my surface. I am a seething bundle of collapsed energy. Even as I write this, I wonder at the sense in writing, in the mess of the world that we trap our mind in. A friend said my writing is “Kafka-esque.” It amuses me, that word. I know […]

Cut the cake, cut the cake, Chants hit the wall across An eternity of shame She didn’t know the words Didn’t know the tunes That wafted through a silly Mindless game. Somehow it […]
This blog is now my last desperate means of self-expression.
