Vision Apparent ….. by Aishwarya
Sun glares through drawn curtains,
Orange hues, summer’s theme,
Sweaty afternoons,
Masking memories of chilly winters.
The day progress,
Without weather getting any better,
Hot, hotter, hottest, slogan of the season,
Tires of the day,
Lullabies me to sleep.
A crack in the window,
Lets breeze enter the room unannounced,
Jostling me back to senses,
Dimness of surroundings,
Assures me it’s night still,
Turning back to catch up on sleep,
The outlines of a protruding twig,
Acts as an aura,
A formless form,
Seeps through walls of the room,
Laments tales of deceit,
Those known strangers faking a goody good smile,
Sorrows of premature death,
That, not having a chance to live while they enjoy,
Chill runs through those warm environs,
Lump in my throat unable to scream,
A disquiet soul ,
Hushed stillness prevails,
Daring me to sleep,
The clock strikes two.

“Right and wrong are such subjective terms. Stop your crusade, and get real…” The venom in my own child’s voice is shocking, but I gather myself again. “…. your religion and morality buddies won’t be around when you need them.” Nor are you, I silently think, but explicitly say, “It is not about buddies or … Continue reading Right or wrong?

The Fountain ….. by Ramya Tantry
After untiring perseverance and relentless energy, I could see the fountain, right in front of me, jetting water into the sky giving a dramatic effect that compelled me to capture the moment in my mind and in my camera, just so that it will last forever with me.
The images came out pretty good, however, one of the images had a dark silhouette passing by and I pretty much remember, there was not a single soul out there when I captured the pictures.
That made me question,does the fountain of youth actually restore the youth or does it take away life altogether for immortalityand at that very moment, I could feel a sudden chill behind me…
The backdrop is perfect for a photoshoot, but I feel several eyes piercing through my existence from the windows. It causes discomfort, but they will be witnesses to what they see here tomorrow morning. The stage is set, and the act will be executed - though I'm not the scriptwriter, but I want people to … Continue reading Scriptwriter
“I guess we’re saying the same thing,” said a commentator who was trolled on social media. The author retorted, “It is all about how, when and where you say it.” Comments that followed …… “A manufacturer only processes, does not create anything.” “Beauty emerges after chiselling.” “Not really, it is about relevance of the final … Continue reading It’s all about consumption
“Power lies in changing the shape of the skyline”, said the star architect. “It can change in a few minutes, and go viral,” silently though the military chief. “How will it help me?” calculates the politician. A few strokes of the brush change colours, and the artist smiles, “What are the clouds made of?” “How … Continue reading Shades of meaning
