Impaled Silence

Fevered days with tired pace, tired shadows rests upon a spent world Rugged surfaces, sudden screeches, faltering promises, people grappling with misunderstood truths Common heretics follow the fallow ideas, whereas, the real thinkers are perturbed with adulterated silence Disgraced with volatile ideas, haven for compulsive liars, of snake oil sellers Silence skewered with raging criticisms, a time twisted and sinewy, ragged reasoning, unreasonable demands Of … Continue reading Impaled Silence

Stridency

Utter hopelessness while trying to convince them, a witless crowd Riled up and antsy, devolution of ideologies, battling perceptions and personal demons There used to be a profound foundation once, the ability to stand independently and face the world Face the forces, the rattled waves of expletives from a giant space ruled by dark minds Listening to the forced narratives is like a continuous scream … Continue reading Stridency

Above and Beyond

The hyperbole sounds like impatience that feeds on delusional thoughts Rises, today, every day, from the devious meditations of sorcery Atlas shrinks, languages entangle, and the trajectory of life haywire On the face of this earth, probing with deceitful eyes; challenging creation The chasm between two realities are filled with mysterious hieroglyphs Here, another consciousness is at play- minds cannot settle for a moment Pugnacious … Continue reading Above and Beyond

Mysterious Enthusiasm

It’s the fear of being too intense that the words are wrapped in unusual sentiments More of persuasion, than being carefree with the expressions which truly matter  The feelings may not have the scope to run through arterial routes  Without the rhythm, the movements feel utterly rehearsed for the eyes that are impressed with razzmatazz Currency isn’t enough to decide the worth of intense feelings … Continue reading Mysterious Enthusiasm

Reflections and perceptions aren’t of similar nature Find anything from the endless gossips? Stepping into the mirror and walking away further Trying to blend … Continue reading Struggles With the Mirror

Influences

They float around to compel Thoughts are too lethal To cut through the trickery Oppressively made dull While those eyes glance Afraid of anyone interfering Pushed towards confines Mala fide treatment Strange idea of inclusiveness Socketed ideologies Deprived of light and air Malodorous intent Attacks the senses Afflicted mannerisms Only a passive existence  Uttering in unison Blunt thoughts propagated From head to foot Arrested in deception … Continue reading Influences

The Structures

Everything seems to be a barrier; the decorated architectures were never meant to blend, but a way to differentiate the present from past. The resilient structures are intricately embellished to narrate inspiring stories. The architecture of any age reflected duality with candid confessions and cryptic hieroglyphics inspired by the culture of that Period. Tremendous respect for space allowed the free voices to echo genuine concerns. … Continue reading The Structures

Conversation, Consciousness, and Conclusions

The frequent conversations that you engage in, with yourself, reflects the state of your mind and shapes the philosophy of your life. Regularly, life pours a lot of inputs, and your brain reacts to the ones you choose, either compulsively, or to feel that you are in sync with the immediate sentiments of society and people around. If you reflect deeply, most of your reactions towards … Continue reading Conversation, Consciousness, and Conclusions
