Her

As I half-lay on her, my face close to her, I could only see her green eyes, with their black pupils. The sliver of her face that was not hidden by my shadow was flashing aglow and fading black in tune to the steps the curtain was performing with the light from the window.  I [...]

The Book Thief (Review?)

Imagine this: A sky painted a dull faded out shade of gray so weak it was ran into black. Imagine the sky lazily regurgitating snowflake after snowflake, as if the will of the clouds were burnt and the flakes were the last of the ashes. Imagine a weather so cold that it will chill your [...]

About How I fell

Presently, I feel like a shirt. That is because I am stitched up. This might make you ask why I am not feeling like something else that is stitched up. Say, a mattress. That is because I am neither fat nor soft I am cut above the elbows and this can happen only with shirts. [...]

Mass Idiocy

The title is redundant. I will come to that later. Ever since I could rationalise, I have always been ‘set right’ or ‘corrected’ by ‘their’ words.

Go Forward

All hope shall one day fail, everyman shall one day fall, It is when the end is nigh, when all we see is despair and sigh. Times like these are when men and women unfailing as the sun rise above, from below breaking shackles of caste and creed and high and low against all odds, [...]

The Four Letter Word

I am sure you are all initiated. Prudence however dictates that I should err on the conservative. Why I should err at all, I am yet to figure out. Before I digress into the virtues or otherwise of erring, let me get back to erring, think that you are all uninitiated and tell you about [...]

Scripto ergo scum

Before you get your mind warped: This post is dedicated to Valli (the woman in the picture). She can be read here. She is one of the very industrious few who stuck to learning and language and succeeded.  In her own words she is an “Ardent fan of German language and been patronising Goethe-Zentrum“ Over [...]

100 Words Per Minute

I am not the president of the world’s greatest nation. But I know a few things. The easiest thing to do when the going is bad is to blame others. It serves the twin purposes of not improving the situation that we are in while very conveniently alienating the others. It is also like a [...]
