Not Much To Read

Incommunicable conversations are being presented daily. Reams of paper wasted on the storytelling process that leads nowhere. It all gathers somewhere, crowded, and claustrophobically settled there, in a space designated for them. Experiences are commonly perceived through a similar vision. A little difference here and there according to the changing milieu. Uttered prematurely, the stories lose significance and body of feelings. It is difficult identifying … Continue reading Not Much To Read

Poetry

An Invitation

The invitations may not have been written in the language of the heart Only your name spelt in cursive, and a paper crafted by the laboured effort The scripted lines embellished with magnificent language to swoon over When held in the hand and rolled slowly, they evoke a sense of illusion Of being spoken about you from a distance about a blurry reflection Embossed letters … Continue reading An Invitation

The Commotion and Peace

Creative commotion is quite common, but we may not realise the contradictions that arise due to the confabulations. Apart from the constant debates, quite cunning at times, there could be a tussle in connivance with a contrary ideology. Curiosity takes an ominous turn in the midst of muddled times! Creativity dismantles the status quo and urges the collective disturbances to laboriously travel through the unknown … Continue reading The Commotion and Peace

Poetic Freedom

Let there be no pretence in poetry. The creative passion along with the intense feelings for everything that occurs in life finds a place in poetic compositions. Expose the fraudulent intentions so that truth can survive, allow imaginations to be bold and pure, silence the greed, douse the antagonism and shameless warnings to life. Poetry should not be the shadow of all these, but an … Continue reading Poetic Freedom

Wicked Thoughts- A Poem

A fantastic poem by Shalini Some days, some wicked thoughts… Reigning them in, is the only way Some days, some wicked thoughts Holding them close, keeps them at bay Some days, some wicked thoughts Though they go far to make my day Some days, some wicked thoughts Like a witch’s cackle, they started in May Some days, some wicked thoughts Lest they boil, I have … Continue reading Wicked Thoughts- A Poem

Stunning

Starry skies waiting for the starry-eyed to come out of that lone refuge Sprightly heart urges the soul to don a new attire for the special occasion Spirits of hope times the clock; hands signal the arrival of sterling moments Sanctuary crafted from the eternal dreams open a new world of freedom Serenity signals the sprawling landscapes lit up with millions of celestial souls ~Amitav Continue reading Stunning

Poetry

Nameless

What if it isn’t properly titled It wanted to be inconspicuous and be there as silently as possible Reminiscing the feelings that prompted the words to wake up Narrating a story in a slumberous day The slanting rays of dawn sneak up on the patio Comparing the morning outside and inside the dwelling Is there any chance that an untitled verse brings a reconciliation? Sleepy … Continue reading Nameless

Philosophy

Salient Communications

Does communication have any philosophy or we communicate just to express our need to be heard? Usually, the narratives in society are like a long chain of words woven with various feelings that emerged from different situations. Situations actually act as a stimulus to gather appropriate words conveying our feelings to the best of our ability, based on our cognitive ability to comprehend a situation. … Continue reading Salient Communications

Articulation

The exaggerated vibrato feels ostentatious Echoing the amplified feelings jostling within Lucid areas of turmoil expressed is resonance Reflexes of the vocal chord stretch and strain Even touching the horizons of evening despair Dome feels like an archipelago midst of nowhere Voices of infinity speak in silence to the soul ~Amitav Continue reading Articulation

The Stories

There are some stories which are narrated in a subtle manner. They are important, but somehow, lose relevance in time. Now, time is a wily magician! It can slow down or rush any move you make. Such is the magical nature of an illusion which is deeply entrenched in the mind and body. Stories which should have been louder takes a vow of silence and … Continue reading The Stories
