We had almost given up. Then, I yelled to call the doctor, as I felt his fingers curl around my hand. Screenshot “He is moving.” The doctor and nurses surrounded the bed and started pumping life. “God helped us through you.” I thanked them with folded hands. “No,” We heard a feeble voice from the … Continue reading The Message
There was only way to counteract the missiles being fired by stupid earthlings – drop a spark from the Divine Flame on the monstrous decision-makers to disempower them. She crept into the cavern where the gods kept their flame, her hands trembling with both awe and hunger. The masquerade she wore was stitched from mortal … Continue reading Fated
I'm glad to find some material on how Equinoxes happen on other planets. Let's weave it into a story. Once in an age, when the Sun’s path crosses the cosmic center, the planets convene. Each brings its equinox tale as wisdom for the council: Saturn rose first, cloaked in rings of shadow. “Balance is fleeting,” … Continue reading Equinoxes in the Universe
It might take longer reaching there. The path is jagged and I need to yield to traffic from the other side. There are butterflies in my stomach as I navigate the roads skilfully, with one eye on the look out for a traffic cop. I am committed to attending the gang’s meeting at the other … Continue reading With Consternation

I feel dwarfed by the opulence of art. I watch the ceiling float away as the artist’s conceptualisation and expression rise into the sky, and place them next to the Creator. They are fractals of God. The power packed in minuscule forms makes me strike off the “small” words from my lexicon. Nothing in the … Continue reading Dwarfed
We’re living in the Wi‑Fi century, but somehow the signal still drops when you need it most, like when I wanted to share an important update. From the mountain top, the sky wasn’t just clouds— it was war trending live, no filter, and he was not aware... Try telling an unborn kid his dad was … Continue reading To my son
The thought catcher never rests, gathering whispers and silent responses. A patchwork quilt of dreams unfolds at night — not my story, but truth stitched in fragments, an authentic self, shimmering, whole. Weekend Writing Prompt
"A rich man’s son below 18 years without a driving license… speeding in a Lamborghini… the life of a bright, earnest student cut short for the sake of an Instagram reel." Now, meet the son of an army officer, who is the key witness in this case. He doesn’t chase clout because he’s seen courage … Continue reading Raising the Future
